I'm not sure I understand, aren't the first three steps demonstrating 
that setting an empty API key indeed disables it?
Or are you instead trying to make it possible to access the API without 
any kind of authentication? I'm afraid this is not supported at the 
moment. 1.6.0 (currently in alpha stage) will support accessing the 
metric parts without authentication [1] but the remaining parts require 
some kind of authentication.

I'm afraid that does not exist yet, there is an existing feature request 
on our tracker [2].
