Hmm... could this open up some kind of anti-trust suit since only Apple is able to have an app store on iOS?

It's not an "app store". It's a website with downloadable software.

hmm a website that sells stuff can be called a "store"... and if stuff happens to be "apps"... makes an "app store" to me, doesn't it? :)

In exactly the same way that a brick and mortar store which happens to sell software can be called an app store, yes.

In theory this competes more directly with the mac App store than the iOS app store.

I just mean since there's no way Amazon could do the same for iOS.

It doesn't compete at all with the iOS app store, they are only selling OSX desktop applications, not mobile iOS ones.
