Compiling with luac is a good option: Adobe distributes Lightroom with
lots of precompiled Lua code, for instance. They don't seem worried.

For non trivial programs, it is not easy to reconstruct the souce
code from the bytecode. The best effort in the direction is LuaDec
(http://luadec.luaforge.net/), but even that does not recover
complete source code.
