Especially for numbers, MessagePack is more efficient. Its API is
identical to Json, so it's almost a drop-in replacement.

A project that I've been working on, Spyne, is designed to implement
public RPC services. It supports both Json and MessagePack. Here's the
json example:
http://spyne.io/#inprot=JsonDocument&outprot=JsonDocument&s=rpc&tpt=WsgiApplication&validator=true

If you choose to use MessagePack, you must HTTP POST the MessagePack
document the same way you'd POST the json document.
