I'm assuming this is still Qt3 - I haven't looked at Qt4. Here's a comment 
from one of my apps that uses QTable/QTableItem and wants numbers 
right-aligned. The basic idea should be the same to center, or do arbitrary 
alignment. This method is in a class that subclasses QTableItem:

    def alignment (self):
        # QTableItem has no setAlignment method yet (as is pointed out in
        # a comment in the source) This is a way to force our numbers to
        # right align. The logic here could be expanded to allow choice of
        # alignments. The methods that draw text in cells call alignment()
        # to get the alignment setting. The  alternative to this is to
        # overload the text drawing methods. This is easier.

        return Qt.AlignRight
