The only difference between a web role and a worker role is that in the web role, IIS (actually Hosted Web Core) gets started and pointed at your app data directory. You can still put code in WebRole.cs that does exactly the same thing as you would do in your worker role, so the decision should really be “Do you want IIS?” If so, use a web role. If not, use a worker role.
