Folks,

Distance attenuation is handled in the Web Audio API like it is in OpenAL.
Please see .distanceModel and associated attributes:

annerNode-section
 
The distance models are defined exactly as OpenAL.  Please see section 3.4:

ation.pdf 

FYI, if I remember correctly OpenAL defines distance models by reference to
IASIG I3DL2:
http://www.iasig.org/pubs/3dl2v1a.pdf. 
 
And I think Microsoft (xbox) and Sony (playstation) also use IASIG I3DL2
definitions.
