Keep in mind, the WGS 1984 Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere coordinate system (or projection) that is used in web mapping is a simplication of the shape of the earth and thus will yield bad data when the user attempts to do analysis, calculate length, calculate area, or even determine direction.  It is NOT a conformal projection, which means it doesn’t even preserve the shape of items on the earth.  It is basically a simplified projection that companies like Google, Bing and Esri are using in web browsers to make life easier for some.  It allows for simpler tiling and faster display of imagery and other base data for web browsers and web mapping.  Best practice is to download the data from AGOL and use in a projected map document and do calculations within ArcGIS.
