Data::Rmap is also an alternative (and is faster in this particular case). But they are both rather slow, so I created
Data::Clean::JSON and
Data::Clean::FromJSON which generate Perl code to do the cleansing and can be several times faster. A benchmark (from slowest to fastest):

$data=JSON->new->decode(q([null, true, false, 1, 2, 3, "a", "b", [], {
+}])); dd $data;
$v=Data::Visitor::Callback->new("JSON::PP::Boolean"=>sub{$_=$_?1:0}, "
+JSON::XS::Boolean"=>sub{$_=$_?1:0});
bench sub { $data2=dclone($data); $v->visit($data2) }, -1; dd $data2'
