Traditionally, this has been at a position leaving one third of the space above and two thirds below, though I'm not sure if that's still currently the exact placing.



Yup, that's what the Human Interface Guidelines say:

http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/XHIGWindows.html#/ /apple_ref/doc/uid/20000961-BACFHDHE

"For nondocument windows, the preference is to open new windows horizontally centered as shown in Figure 14-32. The vertical position should be visually centered: The distance from the bottom of the window to the top of the Dock (if it’s at the bottom of the screen) should be approximately twice the distance as that from the bottom of the menu bar to the top of the window."
