You use "server" to mean "a vast array of servers"? I don't think I've heard that before.

I'd say that http://amazon.com is the address of Amazon's web server, yes. Does that sound wrong?
I don't think I have ever heard anybody use "server" to mean "lots of servers". Perhaps "web site" or "service" or "cluster" or even "load balancers" depending on whether they want to talk about what they provide or what does the providing.
