Accessing contact data Android

If I'm assigning a value to a field of a contact, such as nickname; 

.withValue(Nickname.NAME, "Mr. Incredible")

it is stored in the DATA1 column according to http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Nickname.html

Yet, if I add a SIP Address with SipAddress.SIP_ADDRESS() it's value is also assigned to column DATA1. How do I differentiate between these two? I'm a bit confused on how to access a contacts specific fields and I can't find an explanation in the Android Reference.

I'm specifically using

SimpleCursorAdapter(getActivity(),
                        R.layout.contact_list, null, new String[] {
                        SipAddress.DISPLAY_NAME, SipAddress.SIP_ADDRESS, Nickname.NAME},
                        new int[] {
                        R.id.text1, R.id.text2, R.id.text3}, 0);

Please try,

try {
    Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI,
                    new String[]{ContactsContract.Data.DISPLAY_NAME},
                    ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Nickname.DATA1 + "=" + text, null, null);

    cursor.moveToFirst();
    String Nickname = cursor.getString(0);
}
catch (Exception e) {
}

Yes its saved in ContactsContract.DataColumns.DATA1 with the String SIP_ADDRESS. May this helps you ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.SipAddress
