Thanks!
Not getting into the merits of either part, I think you are asking for 
trouble doing both because there is not clear connection between the two 
parts. Knowing one part is not going to help you with the other. (The 
argument that it helps get 'your feet wet' is rather lame.)

But you can justify it by saying you want an solution to access online 
datasets like:
UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository: http://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/
Datamob: http://datamob.org/datasets
