In AS3:
Alignment of text for a column in a DataGrid component is handled indirectly through the TextFormat object which is used in styling text by the cellRenderer of a DataGridColumn. I often create custom cellRenderers for the DataGrid to handle pictures, video, radio button groups, comboboxes, etc. and aligning various items used in and by the cellRenderers is handled in this manner. Also something to note: There are errors in the component architecture in the way certain calculations were set up between objects. For example, the HeaderRenderer class of the fl.controls.dataGridClasses has one of these in the drawLayout function. You can simply derive a new class from the HeaderRenderer and then do an override on the drawLayout function to make the necessary adjustments. Without that, your HeaderText isn't going anywhere, regardless of how you want it aligned.

There are examples of how to do this in Flex, but the required methods/properties seem to be missing from fl...DataGridColumn.
