Is this breakdown based on the total number of reviews??? .. or just the ones downloaded? Even if we download only 10 reviews, we still need the total breakdown of ALL their reviews, not just the ones downloaded. ie, if i download 10 reviews, I still need to know that they had 382 5-star reviews and 13 1-star reviews, etc. Otherwise to get that info, we would have to download all the reviews, which as we know is impossible with Google as they cap the number of reviews you can download.

Yeh I can change it to return what it finds, but it made sense for it to match what the limit is.
