List rate means direct rates based on weight and dimensions of items and Account rates which based on discount provided on account. You can verify it from value of filed 'RateRequestTypes' in your rate request.
You need some customization around it to get dimensions of package and products. You can assign defaultShipmentBoxTypeId to each product and get dimension of shipmentBox from there otherwise you can use product dimensions if exists. If you don't want to provide dimensions and shipment packages for each product then use default dimensions of default package along with total shippable weight.
