I think we'd need more information regarding what is meant by "bulk 
access".  At present, all measurement *result* data is only available 
by way of explicit measurement id, but the *metadata* is available as a 
list:

The results have to be fetched one measurement at a time:

    /api/v1/measurement/MSM_ID/result/

But you can get basic information about every measurement too:

    /api/v1/measurement/?is_public=1&limit=100

That call will give you a list of the first 100 of all public 
measurements and their metadata.  You can tweak the limit (be kind) 
and/or loop over some limit/offset values to get them all.  This won't 
give you all of the *result* data, but it may be what you're looking 
for.
