You can float the UL to the right, but you'd have to put it above the 
other content of that div. So:

     <div id="page">
         <div id="pagetop">
             <ul class="sectionlist">
                 <li>Main</li>
                 <li>About</li>
                 <li>Blog</li>
                 <li>Research</li>
                 <li>Photo</li>
                 <li>Code</li>
             </ul>
             Page header
         </div>

with

.sectionlist
{
     float: right;
     display: inline;
     list-style: none;
}
