For what it's worth, I got sick of trying to get it to serialize correctly and did it myself.

My data is a javascript array of strings which posts like "value=thing1,thing2,thing3" and I was able to serialize it using the following:

    $('
', {
        "id": "dynamicForm",
        "html": '',
        "action": '/api/Example/',
        "method": "post"
    }).appendTo(document.body).submit();

Then on the server side:

[HttpPost]
[Route("")]
public HttpResponseMessage Post()
{
    var values = HttpContext.Current.Server.UrlDecode(Request.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result).Replace("val=","").Split(',');
...
}
