Hi there,
My assumption is that you want to live stream a BBB session since you have too many users to join the actual session? I.e. your load is too high. In that case you can install your own dedicated BBB cluster which will allow an increase in users that can join a session. We do this for large institutions using BBB. Alternatively you can have panelists join your BBB activity (make the activity only available to them), then stream it to Youtube or a similar platform with existing tools out there and embed that Youtube (or whichever platform you use) link in Moodle on the course page or a Page activity as example.
Coding a live stream API is quite a big feat, perhaps start with some existing tools. All the best.
