I'm new to coding so not familiar with some of these things... how would I go about finding the apiroute (http://myurl.com) for the thermostat? Would this pluggin work with an Aprilaire WiFi thermostat?

The apiroute is simply the address of the device you are trying to connect to. For a local device it might be something like 192.168.1.56. Whatever the address, the device should be capable of handling the API requirements specified in the README.md.

This plugin is not designed to work with the thermostat you have described. Your best chance for integrating this thermostat to homebridge would be to look for a plugin specific to this model, or to create a new plugin designed around the API requirements of your thermostat.
