villain has me outchipped 2-to-1 or 3-to-1

We're heads up.

I have AJo and go all in over his raise (knew he'd raise with anything and he didn't have anything) he calls

He shows A7o

flop is: 3 4 5
turn: 6
river: blank

I leave with $20 and he's leaves with $35 ($5 buyin game)

We're heads up.

Granted, your AJ is still the superior hand in all scenarios; but in heads up play an Ace is floppable; and if he's got chip stack then of course he's going to pressure you -- a 2:1 | 3:1 chip lead virtually mandates bullying - getting an Ace/anything is a reason to make you (the half/chip stack 2nd place player) be put in for 50% of whatever you happen to have -- only because I have an ace, it's heads up, and can afford it.

Poker 101.
