Can you define way "too small" and "way too big". For instance, if you scale it down, use a tape measurer to check that it displays (or not) the diagonal size you entered. Also check the monitor resolution you entered. You can use the '?' button to get an estimate.
As for way too big, it's actually not. The Droid resolution 854x480 is actually pretty big, but it's because the screen density (close to 240) is 2.5x to 3x the density of a typical monitor. If you don't use the scaling feature, the emulator show a pixel perfect rendering. It's just that your monitor pixel are 3 times bigger.
