Sounds like a reasonable request. API can already be used internally -
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Calling_internally , but it
currently checks the user limits.

Please file a bug and I will fix it to allow any limit value for
internal calls (the limits will still be there, just won't be checked
against the maximum allowed).
