There are two ways ;-)

1) activate solder mask
2) let the mouse hover over the object you want to manipulate
3) type [k] to increase and [shift-k] to decrease the mask distance

Alternatively:

1) activate solder mask
2) select the objects you want to manipulate
3) type [:] to open the command window
4) type 
	 ChangeClearSize(Selected, value, unit)
	where a signed value will be an increment/decrement, and 
	unit may be mil, or mm

I'd prefer a footprint-mode. I do all my footprints with the GUI and 
got used to quite a number of work-arounds.
