Note
The DMA system’s user database is unsorted. To avoid performance issues, if your
query matches more than 4000 users, no attempt is made to sort the results on the
server side before returning the first 500 matching records. The system simply
returns the first 500 found in the database.
In any case, there is no way to retrieve the next 500. To see all the users that match
your search criteria, narrow your criteria so that no more than 500 users match.
