a stanza in a ballad is a verse and an example would be: (this is from the lady of shalott):
She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the room,
She saw the water lily bloom,
She saw the helmet and the plume,
She looked down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and floated wide,
The mirror cracked from side to side;
"the has come upon me," cried
The Lady Of Shalott.

The length of a stanza varies by poetic form and author inclination. Although there are many poetic forms that dictate a stanza of a certain length, stanzas in general are not limited by anything except what the author wants to do.
Despite the fact that there is no set length for a stanza, there are words for stanzas of certain lengths. For instance, two-line stanzas are couplets, three-line stanzas are called tercets, and four-line stanzas are called quatrains.
