Just in case, I mention that we use Satimage's XMLLib osax to go from plists to json or reverse. Here are a few examples, where I use PlistNew to make AppleScript data into a plist.
PlistToJSON (PlistNew "blah")
-- "\"blah\""
PlistToJSON (PlistNew 3.14)
-- "3.14"
PlistToJSON (PlistNew {fast:true, complex:false})
-- "{\"fast\":true,\"complex\":false}"
PlistToJSON (PlistNew {1, 2, "c", "d"})
-- "[1,2,\"c\",\"d\"]"
PlistToJSON (PlistNew {somekey:"somevalue", anotherkey:3.14})
-- "{\"somekey\":\"somevalue\",\"anotherkey\":3.14}"
XMLLib is part of Smile's install but you can use it independently, I think.
