You could write an extension to handle this and listen for the “igniter.cart.adding” event. e.g.

Event::listen('igniter.cart.adding', function ($cart, $cartItem) {
    if ($cart->count() >= $YOUR_MAX_AMOUNT)
    {
        throw new ApplicationException('This will flash on screen as an error');
    }
});

Take a look at:
https://github.com/ryanmitchell/ti-ext-kitchendisplay/blob/master/Extension.php

You would add the event code to the boot() method.
The register*() functions you may not need unless you want to max the max amount a variable controlled from the panel.

Generally the best way to learn extensions is to look at other extensions.
