What David is describing is that any URL you supply in a <link rel="exhibit-data"> tag is going to be retrieved with XMLHttpRequest and parsed according to whatever importer you've assigned (Exhibit's JSON, by default). If you place a mechanism on the triple store end that can query your triples and return JSON, you wouldn't have to do anything with Exhibit.
You could also write up a converter on the Exhibit side that took whatever your triple store normally outputs and turned it into something Exhibit can internally consume. These would all be batched; the server would deliver the entirety of the graph you want to peruse, regardless of which side makes it Exhibit friendly.
