Yes, that's what the ubf-jsonrpc package does.  There's also the option
of using the http://github.com/norton/ubf stuff as-is to implement a
"JSF" server, which is straight JSON across a TCP socket (i.e., without
any JSON-RPC HTTP stuff).

IIRC, it's just a server-side configuration option {proto, ubf} or
{proto, jsf} or {proto, ebf} to have an Erlang server speak UBF(A),
"JSF", or UBF-terms-encoded-with-term_to_binary(), respectively.
