That link graph being referenced is the local nodes one, not a global one. So it only yields links that have been discovered by the node you are sending the request to.
You could send a request to each node individually and aggregate the results, however, you have no way to verify the nodes are being honest without actually crawling those pages yourself.
If I may ask, what is the project that you are working on?

I don't mean that in any way other than in an extremely encouraging way. What do you mean exactly? A YaCy node will interrogate the "swarm" of data and that interrogation might yield more links compared to if you interrogate another node? What's that all about?
- misterman0 8y agoIc. Thx! I'm working on a project similar to the YaCy one. The main difference is that I do not want or even require that each node trust each other. I let the user decide who they trust. https://github.com/kreeben/resin https://github.com/kreeben/resin
