The return value of the reviver function only replaces values. If you need to replace keys, then use stringify and replace before the parse call, like this:

JSON.parse(JSON.stringify({"alpha":"zulu"}).replace('"alpha":','"omega":'))

Here is how to replace all numeric keys:

function newkey()
  {
  return Number(Math.random() * 100).toPrecision(2) + RegExp.$1
  }

//Stringify JSON
var foo = JSON.stringify({"123":"ashanga", "12":"bantu"});

//Replace each key with a random number without replacing the ": delimiter
var bar = foo.replace(/\d+("?:)/g, newkey)

//Parse resulting string
var baz = JSON.parse(bar);

Make sure each replaced key is unique, since duplicate keys will be removed by the parse method.
