You have left the resultFormat at its default value which is "object". This causes Flex to convert your xml into a tree of dynamic objects. This has many side effects, among which is attempting to guess at the data type from the content, and it often guesses wrong.
Set resultFormat="e4x" and get your data unmodified, and handle the datatyping yourself.

Is there any way to instruct flex defalut xml parser to stopping auto conversion into expaning exponential value?. Any help is appriciated. Thanks, Rama
