I believe you have to define the axis in your mxml. Take a look at this sample http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/11/12/controlling-whether-a-linechart-should-set-its-base-value-at-zero/ I know its a line chart but the same concept should apply.
Also see http://blog.flexexamples.com/2007/11/12/controlling-whether-a-linechart-should-set-its-base-value-at-zero/ Also please note that I've read somewhere that setting the values for maximum and minimum actually improve the performance. On a final note if there are a large disparity between data points then the LogAxis may be more appropiate. It depends though on what the client wants.
