I think this is what you're looking for on staff position:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/explicit-staff-and-system-positioning
.

Regarding measure width, I looked here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/horizontal-spacing-overview.
It says there's no convenient way to do this. I'm thinking there might be a
way to use {\override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'padding = #10} on a
separate voice to achieve what you want.

Cheers,
Carl
