Bulk Referring Domains
Referring-domain counts for many targets: referring_domains, referring_domains_nofollow, referring_main_domains and referring_main_domains_nofollow per target. The nofollow split is the useful part - a large gap means the raw count overstates authority. For the domains themselves use post_dataforseo_backlinks_referring_domains_live. This one takes no limit parameter, so the only lever is calling it less often.
