Deserializing Json with numbered keys in ServiceStack

I have such Json:

{
  data:{
    "50":{"id":"50","name":"test", etc...},
    "51":{"id":"51","name":"test", etc...},
    "53":{"id":"53","name":"test", etc...},
    ...
  }
}

What is the correct way to deserialize this Json?

[UPDATED]

I think I must to adjust my question. Is it possible to parse Json using class with description of objects. E.g. I have such class and Json which I parse with .FromJson():

public class Data
{
    public ...
}

public class Category
{
    public int Id{get;set;}

    public string Name{get;set;}
}

What should be instead three dots?

Your json contains an object O. This object has a member data that is a dictionary from strings or ints to your category objects. So try something like:

class Root
{
    public Dictionary<int, Category> data;
}

var o = JavaScriptSerializer.Deserialize<Root>(json);

If you are using servicestack.text just do

var v = myJson.FromJson();

Don't forget that servicestack is best used when serialization also made with servicestack.
