I don't see an official way to to change the alignment, but looking into the
source there's
class OptionMenu(Pmw.MegaWidget):
def __init__(self, parent = None, **kw):
[...]
self._menubutton = self.createcomponent('menubutton',
(), None,
Tkinter.Menubutton, (interior,),
borderwidth = 2,
indicatoron = 1,
relief = 'raised',
anchor = 'c',
highlightthickness = 2,
direction = 'flush',
takefocus = 1,
)
so if you don't mind touching _private attributes

self.vege_menu._menubutton.config(anchor=Tkinter.W)

should work.
