Eldritch Blast is a spell-like ability which does not have corresponding spell. So you refer to "Actions in Combat" table in the combat section of PHB."Use spell-like ability" is classified as a standard action which provokes AoO. So, one use of Eldritch Blast (one ranged touch attack) is a standard action.There are several ways to use Eldritch Blast more than once/turn. But most of them are not based on the BAB of the character.Eldritch Glaive blast shape invocation (Dragon Magic) turns your Eldritch Blast into a virtual melee (touch) reach weapon. The invocation specifically note that if you have high BAB you can make multiple attacks. You can also make AoO with this. This seems to be the only exception you can make multiple Eldritch Blast attacks based on your BAB.Quicken Spell-Like ability feat allows you to use a specific spell-like ability as a swift action, 3 times per day. So, with Quicken Spell-Like Ability (Eldritch Blast) feat, you can use one blast as a swift action and another as a standard action in the same turn (though only 3/day).There is an Epic Feat called Eldritch Master which allows you to use 2 Eldritch Blasts per turn.</blockquote>
