I have a question regarding API documentation. I would like to get the upstream and downstream ASN owners of any particular ASN number. Can anyone guide me through the API call.... The documentation is so amazingly huge that for a non technical person like its easy to get lost.

Which API documentation are you talking about? In any case, BGP is peer-to-peer so while many providers have upstream and downstream carriers, many do not. There are many resources to get both the status of BGP peering sessions as well as BGP policies which can help you try to understand the relationships though. Cheers, -- Shane
