There is no such thing as "server data for Android" or "for ASP.NET". This API is for everything. And if you want to use ASP.NET Web API, you need to understand that this is just a particular framework. It can be consumed by Android, .NET application, and a lot more.

For a client part, it's not really important how a Web service or particular Web API is implemented on the server side.
