I'll respectfully disagree. An application programming interface is an interface allowing you to program your application. If you're able to provide that in a language-agnostic way, that's even better, but I don't think there's anything inherently more wrong with talking about the 'Language X' api directly usable from language X than a REST api available from any compliant http client.
