Don't have the required infoinformation for signing up for an app key in StackExchangethe Stack Exchange API

I would like to use the StackExchangeStack Exchange API for the purpose of academic research. Now, standard users are limited to 300 requests per day. For increasing this limit to 10,000 per day, users need to sign up for an app key.

My problem is that when trying to sign up for an app key, there are some questions that I do not know how otto answer, because they seem to pertain to users who have an app, which I don't. I just want to get the data and work with it.

Here is what I mean: the sign up form asks for the Application Name, Description, OAuth Domain and Application Website. I have none of those. I suppose I am not the first one with this problem. Any advice?
