I guess that would depend on the rest of your architecture, and whether you use the deployment manager or precompiled rules projects.
If you use the deployment manager, it really doesn't matter - the deployment manager will update the rules service continuously (as they change). If you use precompiled adb files, you might not want to redeploy your entire application with each rules update. That would speak against going for an embedded/inline Java deployment. In that case, a web service would be easier simply because it would be a smaller unit of change.
On the other hand, you can combine those practices: I have an application that uses an inline deployment (C#) with precompiled rules (adb-files), that still updates rules dynamically using a deployment manager, so everything is basically possible.
The most important thing is to consider your options and read a little about them before you decide, and you are doing that now You should also check out the "Online documentation" that you find on the help menu in Blaze Advisor. A lot of good tips there!
