Solving the problem with the jessegavin answer:

$(document).ready(function (){

var json = {
  BrowserStats : [
    { engine: "Trident", browser: "IE 4.0", platform: "Win 95+", version: 4 },
    { engine: "Trident", browser: "IE 5.0", platform: "Win 95+", version: 5 },
    { engine: "Trident", browser: "IE 5.5", platform: "Win 95+", version: 5.5 }
  ]
};

var data = jQuery.map(json.BrowserStats, function(el, i) {
  return [[el.engine, el.browser, el.platform, el.version]];
});

$('#example').dataTable( {
  "aaData": data,
  "aoColumns": [
    { "sTitle": "Engine" },
    { "sTitle": "Browser" },
    { "sTitle": "Platform" },
    { "sTitle": "Version"}
  ]
 });
});
