Hi gleung - This is what Li support had to say about this.
There's no specific number since it relies on several factors. In this case, since as you're specifically talking about "internal" API calls made through Freemarker in custom components and endpoints, I'd start with page views. Page views * average # of internal API calls per page will estimate the volume. We don't have any external reporting on these numbers (and I suspect the numbers in the linked post are actually external API calls but if not please clarify). We're seeing 1-2K page views per day which is pretty low. Even if you had 50 API calls per page (a high number, even for a fully custom board, thread, and category page) that's 50-100K API calls per day -- also not in dangerous territory. We've seen API consumers that are over 40M per day. Even considering for example that you likely have fewer server resources than the top 10, you should ultimately be fine.
More likely, you'll need to be careful when developing custom pages that the page load is snappy. If you use "too many" calls, your users may notice a problem before our servers do.
Let me know if this helps.
