Word Press API key

[EdenWeb]

If I install Word Press through my hosting control panel, does that mean I have a Word Press account and if so where can I fidn my API key?

EG - I want to activate Askimet and it's asking for the API key. It tells me to go to the WP site and create an account. Is that a seperate mandatory step?
Thanks
