Every time I look at the page source of tickers, order books and charts, I don't see anything.
Is this all happening with SSI?

It's all happening with AJAX and Websockets/Socket.IO

You find the URL for the API - see below, this is for getting the South African Rand price of Bitcoin

http://www.bitcoin.za.org/api

If you call the page directly with your browser you will get something like this;

{"ZAR":"62.78"}

In PHP you can do this;

Code:
<?php

$_rate 
file_get_contents("http://www.bitcoin.za.org/api");
$obj json_decode($_rate);
$_rate $obj->{'ZAR'};

echo 
"ZAR = $_rate";

?>


This will result in;

ZAR = 62.78

Hope it help you or someone.

What exchanges are you looking to extract JSON data from?

I have written libraries for some exchanges already.  See my sig
