Issues with Typesense Search Results Limit

Hey there 👋 I'm trying typesense for the first time and for the purpose of learning I threw together a very simple collection with this schema:

{
    name: 'accounts',
    fields: [
        {
            name: 'username',
            type: 'string',
            facet: false,
        },
        {
            name: 'email',
            type: 'string',
            facet: false,
        },
    ],
}

And dumped a bunch of random data in there with that structure, if I use this code to search:

const accounts = await typesenseClient
            .collections<Omit<Account, 'password'>>('accounts')
            .documents()
            .search(
                {
                    q: 'Ma',
                    query_by: 'username',
                    page: 1,
                    per_page: 20,
                    include_fields: 'username',
                },
                {
                    cacheSearchResultsForSeconds: 0,
                }
            );

It will return ONLY 10 hits, even though I know for a fact there should be more documents with the username starting with Ma (same thing happens for different searches, it doesn't go over 10) - if the q param is set to * it will show all the 1K+ docs available in that collection.
What am I missing? I've followed the setup guide from here https://typesense.org/docs/guide/install-typesense.html#linux-binary

Try sending 'max_candidates: 1000' as a search option.
