The commentary to org-exp-bibtex.el says:

,----
| ;;; Commentary:
| ;;
| ;; This is an utility to handle BibTeX export to both LaTeX and html
| ;; exports. It uses the bibtex2html software from
| ;; http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr/bibtex2html/
| ;;
| ;; The usage is as follows:
| ;; #+BIBLIOGRAPHY: bibfilebasename stylename optional-options
| ;; e.g. given foo.bib and using style plain:
| ;; #+BIBLIOGRAPHY: foo plain option:-d
| ;;
| ;; Optional options are of the form:
| ;;
| ;; option:-foobar pass '-foobar' to bibtex2html
| ;; e.g.
| ;; option:-d sort by date.
| ;; option:-a sort as BibTeX (usually by author) *default*
| ;; option:-u unsorted i.e. same order as in .bib file
| ;; option:-r reverse the sort.
| ;; see the bibtex2html man page for more. Multiple options can be combined like:
| ;; option:-d option:-r
| ;;
| ;; Limiting to only the entries cited in the document:
| ;; limit:t
`----

Did you try the limit option?
