If you're using the MVC, you can pull raw post data from the request:
$json = $request->getRawPost();
(You can get the request object in your controller using
$this->getRequest().)
If not using the MVC, you need to grab the raw post from php://input:
$json = file_get_contents('php://input');

$native = Zend_Json::decode($json);
