Without a search, every account comes back, oldest first. active is 1 for an account that can sign in and 0 for a suspended one. The list includes the system's own non-person accounts too: one for each node's agent and one the api uses itself, all with the system_agent role.
Parameters

A search comes back in address order. One shorter than 3 characters answers an empty list.
