What David actually meant is that the chance to get a satisfactory answer is 
to attach a FULL lilypond example, which anyone willing to help can simply 
copy and run through lilypond. Otherwise, we'll have to type everything from 
scratch, so the barrier to help you is a lot higher.

You shouldn't produce the whole score, but rather a stripped-down example that 
only shows what you want (or rather the current situation that you have, from 
which we can start twearking). In your case, such a minimal example would have 
been something like:

\version "2.13.2"

\relative c'' {
  \time 3/4 
  c4 c c
  \time 2/4 
  c c
  \time 3/4 
  c c c
  \time 2/4
  c c
  \time 5/4
  c c c c c
  \time 2/4
  c c
}

It might sound trivial, since everyone can probably write this following your 
explanation, but it requires some time doing this obvious task. Now, if you 
don't provide such an example, this gives the impression that you want our 
help but are not willing to invest enough time to make it easty for us to help 
you.

Anyway, I suppose what you are after is the following override:
  \override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'single-digit

Since I haven't found anything in the documentation and in the LSR, I created 
a sample snippet and posted it to the LSR:
http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?u=1&id=609

Can this snippet be added to the documentation about time signatures 
(currently, the only mention of single-digit is in the section about mensural 
time signatures!)

Cheers,
Reinhold
