Hi Locke, If you want to write such a wrapper, you're quite welcome to - it's certainly not a violation of the TOS or anything like that. We'd encourage you to examine why you need to do this, though - do you really need to return several thousand results in a single request? Will your users be able to use an interface that includes thousands of items?
