On Saucy, I was able to do this using dconf e.g. to set the launcher icon size to 64 pixels



dconf write /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/icon-size 64


To reset it to the default value, you can use



dconf reset /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/icon-size



The dconf command line utility is not installed by default - you need to install the dconf-tools package. Usually there is an equivalent command via gsettings however in this case it appears the required schema definition does not exist.
