Example code:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({
   	backgroundColor:'white'
   });
   
   var tf = Ti.UI.createTextField({
   	value:'SAMPLE',
   	maxLength:20,
   	top:20,
   	left:20,
   	width:300,
   	height:60,
   	borderStyle:Ti.UI.INPUT_BORDERSTYLE_ROUNDED
   });
   win.add(tf);
   
   var b = Ti.UI.createButton({
   	title:'Increase maxLength',
   	width:200,
   	height:40,
   	bottom:60
   });
   b.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
   	tf.maxLength += 5;
   	Ti.API.info('maxLength: '+tf.maxLength);
   });
   win.add(b);
   
   var b2 = Ti.UI.createButton({
   	title:'Unlimited length',
   	width:200,
   	height:40,
   	bottom:120
   });
   b2.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
   	tf.maxLength = -1;
   });
   win.add(b2);
   
   win.open();
