What should be the rate of your speech in English to sound like a native American?
Ujjaltalukdar
I believe you are asking how to sound like someone that was raised in the US, not how to sound like an American Indian (Native American being the politically correct phrase).
It should flow nicely. There is no specific rate, people speak at all sorts of speeds depending on where they grew up. Word order and breaks in the flow are more likely to identify an non-native speaking English. I tend to speak more slowly than many people, but my English is very good.

It would be a good idea. It will avoid confusion. People will understand you more easily.It is not necessary to sound exactly like a native English speaker.
