What are the parameters to use to limit the number of allignmets produced by blast for each query sequence?
I seem to remember it is '-b xxx' or something....

You are right, -b is the switch for blastall. Two relevant lines from blastall --help
-v Number of database sequences to show one-line descriptions for (V) [Integer]
default = 500
-b Number of database sequence to show alignments for (B) [Integer]
default = 250
