Android 4.0+ has new a technology piece, WiFi Direct:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-4.0.html

Looks quite promising.

For previous Android versions, the state of AdHoc WiFi support is described
here:

I suppose you could ask every user of your app to connect to the same WiFi
router. Then they'd be able to exchange data over the router's local (WiFi)
subnet.

( or ask them to install Android 4.0 or root their device and replace
wpa_supplicant :) )
