In the ajax call, try to JSON.stringify the input parameter:

$.ajax({
     type: 'POST',
     url : 'Default.aspx/UpdateReportStream',
     data: JSON.stringify({category: selected }),
     contentType: 'application/json',
     success: function (msg) {

     },
     error: function (msg) {
     alert(msg);
     }
 });
