Web services by design are platform agnostic, which means that you should be able to access them from any application. However depending upon the relevant framework options available different implementations might be easier to access that others (XML/SOAP via .NET as an example).

Building a REST service serving up JSON could be your best option for an easy adoption on multiple platforms.
