"The length limit of a DNS TXT record is 255 characters."

Nope. That's the maximum length of a TXT record string. TXT record strings with the same owner name get concatenated together. The maximum for a TXT record is 65,280 octets (which may or may not translate into characters depending on encoding).

Also, you probably want to think about the implications of caching and TTL.
