I SO second this, and I raise you an excellent web-interface to boot. I have it running on a (headless) server and it's simply wonderful. On the tablet, I installed Torrent Manager which can connect to Deluge (and other daemons like Vuze) and it actually handles magnet links from the browser. I'm very happy about this setup.
uTorrent... I had to stop using uTorrent because it just stopped working. All torrents failed before they really started. I don't remember the error but I installed Tixati, which is also very functional (but now I have no Windows machine that I want to use for any torrent-related things anymore).

transmission has an excellent web ui, that doesn't require installing anything on other machines

uTorrent has a webUI that allows you to log to it remotely; you have to install it on the PC that uTorrent resides on. You set the authentication details on said PC, so I doubt it goes through any sort of server, as it doesn't need to.

I am referring to the the remote connection which uses remote.utorrent.com. Of course I'd favour the webUI too.
You can use a remote connection to connect to uTorrent but it goes through uTorrent's server for authentication if my memory serves me well.
