There isn't a way to search our catalog for only novels (or standalone projects, rather than short stories).
You could try searching only for solos; that would get you complete projects read by one reader, but they still could be short stories.

In addition to what Tricia said, one reason you're finding so many short stories is simply because, when it comes to science fiction specifically, we just have more short stories than novels. The reason for that is the weirdness of USA copyright law. There were a lot of scifi short stories published in subscription magazines for which the copyright was never renewed. On the other hand, if the book was actually published as a standalone novel, the copyright was more likely to have been renewed, so fewer of those works are in the public domain already.
EDIT: I know that doesn't help solve your problem. But I thought you might find it interesting nonetheless, perhaps.
