This is the most simple of CF services returning JSON;

http://localhost/Example.cfc?method=getResource&resource=whatever&returnformat=JSON
 

Generally to be using REST you would use the http verbs like 'get' or 'put' to 
interact with data (resources), instead of specifying a method. So the URL 
might look something like this instead;

http://localhost/?whatever.json 

There's a cfmeetup recording which is a good introduction to REST and demos a 
Mach II implementation. 

Cheers.
