How do I tell attributes from elements in the output?

Attributes carry an @_ prefix; an element's own text sits under #text. Nothing is silently merged, so you never lose the distinction.

Are numbers converted?

No — values stay strings. SAP data is full of leading zeros and fixed decimals that JavaScript would quietly destroy by parsing (0012340 becoming 12340). Keeping strings is the safe default.
