Man pages are their own thing -- although the end result could be the same with some aesthetic differences (man pages does not support colors per-se, though with a config you could style your titles or emphasis).

rst2ansi is a more generic document renderer, that may be used in another program to render document parts. It doesn't convert the document to an intermediate man page, nor specifically formats the document as, well, documentation.
