You asked for a JSON implementation, not a web server. Using mochijson
is just a matter of calling it like any other module. The only other
module it depends on is mochinum for the number formatting.

mochiweb is more of a toolkit for building web servers than what
you're looking for, we don't build ajax applications with it, we build
high volume services with it. They don't normally even serve HTML
pages.

The only "example" really is here:
