An API key is unique for for a particular organization. It may be unique for each app as well. You may find that API keys work better as unique app identifiers than as security tokens.

@Akash Prabhashankar "It may be unique for each app as well." -- is actually misleading. No two Apps can have the same API Key within an Org. It will be always unique. Do you agree?
