We introduce the distribution function Fn(q,t) of a pair of statistics on Catalan words and conjecture Fn(q,t) equals Garsia and Haiman's q,t-Catalan sequence Cn(q,t), which they defined as a sum of rational functions. We show that Fn,s(q,t), defined as the sum of these statistics restricted to Catalan words ending in s ones, satisfies a recurrence relation. As a corollary we are able to verify that Fn(q,t)=Cn(q,t) when t=1/q. We also show the partial symmetry relation Fn(q,1)=Fn(1,q). By modifying a proof of Haiman of a q-Lagrange inversion formula based on results of Garsia and Gessel, we obtain a q-analogue of the general Lagrange inversion formula which involves Catalan words grouped according to the number of ones at the end of the word.
