Well, units can be whatever you want them to be...

but, if you're exporting the objects into some other software, for example a game system, then in my experience, that game system will be assuming 1 unit = 1 meter. But, it could be feet, or inches, or some other measure. Check with your target export system.

If it's only for use within AC3D, and your object doesn't have to interact with any other objects made independently, then it doesn't matter.
