No, that isn't what it stands for. AAC is a format from Dolby and is an open standard. So I don't know why manufactures would support WMA over AAC since you would end up being stuck with an Microsoft license and a sub-par audio codec.
I say if you don't want an iPod (why I don't know) you should start asking Creative, and everyone else to support AAC (as well as WMA if you want) instead of asking Apple to support WMA. I think its an easier battle to fight.

Also if your interested, Ogg Vorbis has some comparisons of the audio formats.
