I thought it was stored in the cookie, but I just checked, and it doesn't seem so, unless, of course, I misread. But the API "knows" the value set in my settings page despite not needing to login to use the API.

If you have an active site session it would pull it out of the session as it's attached to your account as a property. For normal logged out API usage that doesn't happen in a browser, it is based on the limit parameter, or defaults to 75.
