When watching videos on twitch, you can (on PC) bring up the video statistics

The screen shot shows a buffer of 27s (at 2829kbps). This value stays pretty constant which would indicate that the buffer size is roughly 76mb for me at least.

I was wondering whether buffer size was in any way configurable (either through the player settings, browser settings or through Twitch's API).

My Internet connection is more than capable of downloading 10x the playback rate and I would like to increase the buffer size.

No. Twitch does not offer user configurable buffer size.
