if you make your bools nullable, you can just use the .serialize() method on all your values, and the checkboxes that aren't in the posted data will simply be ignored by the method:

[WebMethod]
public static bool MyMethod(string a, string b, string c, bool? chkbox1, bool? chkbox2....) {
       ...
}

you would need to add a bool? parameter for all your possible checkboxes on the page. that's the best way to provide a good method for testing etc. however if you really wanted to you could add another object to your data, for instance

data: { 'a':'val_a', 'b':'val_b','c':'val_c', 'dict': { 'chk1', 'chk2', 'chk3' } }

where chk1, chk2, chk3 is an array you've built of checked checkboxes, and your dict param would simply become a string array.
