Short answer: look at the biblatex manual for ¨Citation styles¨, pick one you like/need and use it as an option when you load biblatex. For instance (in LyX 1.6.X, in the preamble):
\usepackage[citestyle=numeric]{biblatex} Longer answer: look into the different styles that have been developed for biblatex (MLA, philosophy, etcetera) if the standard citestyles do not fit your needs. A search on CTAN for biblatex may give you an idea of what is available. In this case, you need to be more careful, bacause sometimes certain bibstyles need particular version of biblatex and/or some support from the bibliographic database (i.e. they need certain fields, or expect to find some values in standard fields). MLA use to have some of this problems, for instance.
