I think (correct me if I'm wrong devs) you'll have to use the cax 
keyword argument to manually specifiy the position of the axes in which 
to draw the colorbar.  You'll also need to adjust the position of the 
plot using figure.subplots_adjust.  Like this maybe:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
data = np.random.randn(30,30)
plt.pcolor(data)
fig = plt.gcf()
fig.subplots_adjust(top=0.85)
ax = fig.add_axes([0.12, 0.9, 0.8, 0.05])
plt.colorbar(cax=ax, orientation='horizontal')

Hope this helps,

Ryan
