Make first a Virtual link :

 //Add a Virtual Links
    add_action( 'init', 'wpse9870_init_internal' );
    function wpse9870_init_internal()
    {
      global $wp_rewrite;

        $wp_rewrite->add_external_rule( 'my-api.php', 'index.php?api=1', 'top');
    }

    add_filter( 'query_vars', 'wpse9870_query_vars' );
    function wpse9870_query_vars( $query_vars )
    {
        $query_vars[] = 'getrequest';
        return $query_vars;
    }

    add_action( 'parse_request', 'wpse9870_parse_request' );
    function wpse9870_parse_request( &$wp )
    {
        if ( array_key_exists( 'getrequest', $wp->query_vars ) ) {
            include 'my-api.php';
            exit();
        }
        return;
    }

After that you can write your code on my-api.php for restApi and your request url is: http://siteURL.com/?getrequest
