I have recently figured out that my favorite game, Apex Legends, sounds amazing in Japanese. Is there a way I can change the language to Japanese on my Xbox? And if so, will it effect any of my stats or what servers I'm on?

Unfortunately, this is not possible. There is currently no way to fix this problem, as Microsoft has region locked the languages. You could try different regions, such as the U.S. that have an English setting and see if you still encounter the same problems.
You can edit your Xbox 360 profile on an Xbox One by using any Xbox 360 game. One the game has loaded, press the View/Back and Menu buttons (the ones in the middle of the controller) at the same time to bring up the Xbox 360 "Xbox Guide" menu.
From there, you can scroll over to "Settings" and select "Profile", then "Edit Profile", to see settings that will let you change the "Gamer Picture", "Gamer Zone", "Motto", "Name", "Location", and "Bio" that are used for Xbox 360 content.
Unfortunately, this now seems to mostly be limited to the built-in Pictures/Avatars. I had unlocked and purchased several other ones, but only one of those is visible in this menu. It used to include all of them (when I first wrote this answer in 2017), so this appears to be a bug/regression, but at this point I doubt it will be fixed. 😞 I've tested this through multiple games and routes to access these settings, including from the games in which I unlocked some of the avatars, but it made no difference.

You can change your system's region/locale within the settings
This will change your entire console to Japanese, and when games read the locale, it will change the game(apex in this question), to that language as well. It will not affect connection, as that is still primarily ping based.
This method is not recommended if you can't read Japanese, but it is the only way for the console to achieve your desired effect of Japanese voices.
Some games offer language options in the game itself, the best hope is that Respawn eventually does the same.
