Is there a way (ex: API - params) to get the main article for a category on wikipedia.
Not really, MediaWiki doesn't have a concept of a "main" article for a category.
The example you note is just in the category page text, you'd have to parse that out somehow. I've also seen the main article sometimes be listed in the category with a sortkey of " "; again, this is something done by editors on the wiki and not a feature of MediaWiki itself.
