Otto,
You can already specify these parameters to the stats box:
Assume a pad containing an histogram with the stats box:
  TPaveText *stats = (TPaveText*)gPad->GetPrimitive("stats");
  stats->SetTextFont(82);
  stats->SetTextSize(0.03);
  stats->SetFillColor(42);

I agree that the "=" characters could be aligned. The only way to do it
correctly is to:
  -draw the =
  -draw the par name right adjusted to the =
  -draw the value left adjusted to the =
