Hi Joe!

It is difficult to say why you are only getting a few recommendations even though there are a lot of rules without knowing your data set. Did you look at the right assoctype? Other than that it can also happen because of user based filtering. Have you tried sending the requests for recommendations without supplying a userid?

The numberOfResults parameter should work. However, if there are only 4 valid rules easyrec cannot send 15 to you. It is basically an "up to 15" semantic.

As for your case that you want a minimum number or none - this can easily be done on the client side and in a more flexible way (e.g. combine the output of different calls to get more results, use another call as fallback,...) than we could ever do on the server side, so we don't plan to add this functionality. In our opinion this is a non issue with an easy client side solution.

Greetings Stephan
