host.axis["left"].major_ticklabels.set_size(24)
or
host.axis["left"].label.set_size(24)
should work.
On the other hand, if you're using matplotlib v1.0 or later, I
recommend you to use "axes_grid1" instead of "axes_grid". With
axes_grid1, set_xlable and set_ylable work as expected. For example,
your code can be something like below.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from mpl_toolkits.axes_grid1.parasite_axes import HostAxes
fig = plt.figure()
host = HostAxes(fig,[0.08, 0.1, 0.82, 0.83])
fig.add_axes(host)
par = host.twinx()
host.set_xlabel('Dominant Characteristic Threshold', size=24)
host.set_ylabel('Number of Groups', size=24)
par.set_ylabel(' Noise Students', size=24)
# bunch of plot commands
host.set_ylim(0,8)
par.set_ylim(0,0.9)
