Thanks for all the feedback from everyone. For the json cpp libraries, I find that jsoncpp looks unpolished with outstanding bugs (it is still advertised as Beta) and it is a hassle to install (you have to install some Python modules just to read the documentation).
Cajun looked more polished and minimalistic (a positive trait), but it also looks abandoned and doesn't seem to have an entry point as far as documentation goes. I'll look at them a bit longer, but at this point I'm inclined to take a look at the c libraries instead.
