No.  Silverstripe is a traditional CMS that would require significant
development to add features useful for this.  Drupal has webservices like
XML-RPC, JSON, REST, SOAP either built in or available from well supported
modules.  Drupal also has the ability to add virtually any type of data
field to the database through the GUI and the query builder can be used to
create web services using those fields.  For example, I can connect to a
Drupal server with MS office and edit blog posts with XML-RPC.  In fact,
Microsoft has a department working on ways to integrate Drupal with MS
products like SQL server.  The web services functions drupal provides
provide a rich assortment of options for integration.
