How would you go about creating a restful web service using Meteor. I would like to create apps in Appcelerator that hook into the same backend.
Can Meteor solve this problem?

I suppose you probably could create a RESTful service using Meteor, but it’s not really what the framework is intended for — one of the main benefits of Meteor is tight interaction between the client and the server, and a web service doesn’t have a client side. I’d recommend looking into either writing a web service back end in node.js on its own or something like https://github.com/intridea/grape if you like Ruby.
