What CouchDB does for its continuous changes feed is just to send one 
JSON document per line, with a newline terminator. Then you can do:

  while line = gets
    data = JSON.parse(line)
    ... do something with data
  end

Of course this means that the JSON you send must not be pretty-printed, 
and also any embedded newlines within strings are encoded as \n, which 
the JSON spec allows.

HTH,

Brian.
