Hi al, Thanks for your reply, I managed to find a trick to solve this problem by using the native WordPress get_post_meta function, the idea is as follow:

$lists = get_field('lists', $post->ID);

$len= 0; // To get the number of rows
foreach ($lists as $key => $list) {
  update_sub_field(array('lists', $key, 'field'), 0, $post->ID);
  $len++;  
}

$result = array();

for($i= 0; $i < $len; $i++) {
  $result[$i]= array(
    "field" => get_post_meta($post->ID, "lists_".$i."_field", true),
  );
}

var_dump($result);

You have just to take a look about how ACF name the post meta fields here: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/querying-the-database-for-repeater-sub-field-values/
