As it happens, I was not familiar with this term until I bought Archie, my huskey.
So as I was to believe is that heterochromania would be to have 2 different coloured eyes.
Today I studied a little deeper and basically learnt that it a pretty loose term that basically covers any abnormality, (ie. non identical eyes or even identical eyes containing more that one main colour) of the eyes.
It also covers different pupil sized,
different colour from the outside to the inside,
a red eye (bloodshot)
and a variety of interesting colour schemes and patterns.

For me, I have many varieties. My pupils are different sizes, my eyes are different colours from each other and they are both varying in colour from the outside in.
Most people don't really notice, but since I got my dog people tend to look at him then look around the table and will pick up on my eyes. I'm on day shift now and someone brought it up and it became a lenghty conversation that ended with everyone asking if they had heterochromia. They are all Asian with perfectly matching eyes.
Anyway, I'm guessing it's fairly common in one way or another. More so in caucasians.
How many of you would say that you have heterochromatic eyes, and in what form?
