The intent would be that it just isn't there. So, something like this:

   {
     "meta" : {},
     "data" : {
       "cost-mode" : "numerical",
       "cost-type" : "routingcost",
       "map-vtag"  : "1266506139",
       "map" : {
         "PID1": { "PID1": 1,  "PID2": 5 },
         "PID2": { "PID1": 5,  "PID2": 1,  "PID3": 15 },
         "PID3": { "PID2": 15, "PID3": 1  }
       }
     }
   }

Thanks,
