How about extending onkeyup:

    $('#signup-form').validate({

        onkeyup: function(element) {
            var element_id = $(element).attr('id');
            if (this.settings.rules[element_id].onkeyup !== false) {
                $(element).valid();
            }
        },

So now within rules you can do this:

        rules: {
            username: {
                required: true,
                minlength: 3,
                maxlength: 25,
                onkeyup: false, /* on blur validation */
            },
            password: {
                required: true,                   
                passwordmeter: true,
                onkeyup: true, /* on keyup validation */
            },

By extending onkeyup we made it a default behaviour, so sticking onkeyup: true is optional.
