I suspect that they are figuring the business w model out as they go along for some of this. Also, there is a request form that one submits to get an API ID and this asks for the sort of use you will put it to. I assume that if it is one that is "complex" then the WRI business team will discuss the scope with you to see if it is in the realm of something that, for example, should involve licensing fees (e.e., if you are going to make a bunch of money from it). Google has an API as well. And in that case the API ID the they generate--for the most basic one--for you allows (if I remember correctly)only a limited queries per day unless you upgrade to a higher level of service....
