Since you're using getJSON you don't need to convert your response to JSON manually. jQuery does that for you.

$.getJSON("http://localhost/REST/users", function(data) { for (var i = 0; i < data.counters.length; i++) { var counter = data.counters[i]; console.log(counter.counter_name); } });

Although keep in mind, that the JSON response you posted doesn't have a counters key, so I'm not entirely sure what you want to achieve with this.
