The size is the diameter or thickness of the sway bar.

A sway bar's rigidity(spring rate) is determined by the length of the lever arms(shorter=stiffer), diameter (larger=stiffer), material, mounting scheme.

I have the Si sway bar and it makes a world of a difference in handling without sacrificing ride quality. It's one of the cheapest upgrades that you can actually feel.
