I think that's still TBD. Pandoc supports CSL JSON as an end-user input format, so there's at least one example. There's been periodically efforts at a bib json representation over the past few years, including a fairly high-profile one around HTML5 microformats. While never designed with this intention in mind, I think CSL JSON (particularly once we stabilize it) is as good a candidate as any for this sort of lightweight, but flexible, bib format. FWIW, I used json here just because it's the primary input format for citeproc-js, so was assuming it's appropriate.
