It sounds like you need to consult the documentation on the API. I think many REST APIs support some sort of "maximum results" parameter, it'd be down to whatever API you're calling. They might use paging, in which case you can make repeat API calls until you receive a page that has no results.

Sounds like your calling an API that isn't yours; and it's throttling because it isn't yours.

An API does not "contain 15,000 records". The API is the interface to get at those records and manipulate them.

Having said that, the only people who can tell you how to get more than 20 records are the people who wrote the API. There is no standard for API's that says you must return 20 record to all of them. It's entirely up to the people who wrote the API as to how it works and how many records it can return in a single request, or how to get the "next page" of them.
