Answer 1

Consider creating classes corresponding to your JSON object structure. In that case you don't have to use Dictionary<> like:

[DataContract]
public class Customer
{
    [DataMember(Name="name")]
    public string Name{get;set;}

    [DataMember(Name="id")]
    public int ID{get;set;}
}

This get serialized as:

{"name": "name-value", "id": "id-value"}

Of course, this is just an alternative to what you already have and may not be applicable.
