I assume you're using omindex.  There is currently no command line 
option which allows you to change the sample size, but it is trivial to 
tweak the source so that a larger sample is produced.  Look at around 
line 423 of omindex.cc, and change the number 300 in the lines:

     if (sample.empty()) {
         sample = truncate_to_word(dump, 300);
     } else {
         sample = truncate_to_word(sample, 300);
     }

to a larger value.  This number is the maximum size in bytes of the 
sample produced.

Hope this helps,
