It sounds like you're not projecting from lat,lon coordinates to Mercator correctly, which is introducing the offset. How are you getting the "floating-point X/Y values"? Are you talking about lat,lng coordinates in decimal form, or are you talking about the values you got by projecting the coordinates into Mercator? More detail about your code is probably necessary to provide any real help.
