I see.

That works like a charm!

OK.

Well, this method doesn't provide enough granularity and doesn't
give the expected results (at least for my purpose):

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\pgfplotsset{compat=1.3}

\newcommand{\myplot}{%
  \begin{tikzpicture}
    \begin{axis}
      \addplot coordinates {
        (0,0.2) (0.4,0.6) (0.6,0)
      };
      \legend{Blah}
    \end{axis}
  \end{tikzpicture}
}

\begin{document}
\myplot

\pgfplotsset{small}
\myplot

\pgfplotsset{footnotesize}
\myplot

\pgfplotsset{tiny}
\myplot


\pgfplotsset{normalsize}
\tikzset{
  every picture/.style={scale=0.7,every picture/.style={}},
}
\myplot
\end{document}

So I'll keep your first suggestion :)

It was very helpful: thanks a lot!
 
Best regards.
