If I should be approaching this problem through a different method, please suggest so. I am creating an item based collaborative filter. I populate the db with the LinkRating2 class and for each link there are more than a 1000 users that I need to call and collect their ratings to perform calculations which I then use to create another table. So I need to call more than 1000 entities for a given link.

For instance lets say there are over a 1000 users rated 'link1' there will be over a 1000 instances of this class for the given link property that I need to call.
How would I complete this example?

class LinkRating2(db.Model):
    user = db.StringProperty()
    link = db.StringProperty()
    rating2 = db.FloatProperty()

query =LinkRating2.all()
link1 = 'link string name'
a = query.filter('link = ', link1)
aa = a.fetch(1000)##how would i get more than 1000 for a given link1 as shown?


##keybased over 1000 in other post example i need method for a subset though not key
class MyModel(db.Expando):
        @classmethod
        def count_all(cls):
            """
            Count *all* of the rows (without maxing out at 1000)
            """
            count = 0
            query = cls.all().order('__key__')
            while count % 1000 == 0:
                current_count = query.count()
                if current_count == 0:
                    break
                count += current_count

                if current_count == 1000:
                    last_key = query.fetch(1, 999)[0].key()
                    query = query.filter('__key__ > ', last_key)

            return count
