Hi Pablo, Welcome to mapnik!
Very cool you are experimenting with typographic maps and mapnik. We should be able to get this working better. One thing I noticed right off is that label_position_tolerance should help a bit, but it appears that somehow it is not being parsed via XML. So, I fixed this in the 0.7.2 development branch (code for next release in 0.7.x series) and in trunk: http://trac.mapnik.org/changeset/2440 Can you rebuild mapnik from: http://svn.mapnik.org/branches/0.7.2-dev/ and try setting label_position_tolerance="100" and see if that helps with more regular spacing? You will still see gaps between labels - likely more than you are aiming for. Fixing this looks tricky, so I would encourage you to file a ticket at trac.mapnik.org so this request does not get lost.
