I don't know about Qt, but in plain X, you can set the win_gravity
field of the window's size hints to CenterGravity with
XSetWMNormalHints() and use (XDisplayWidth() / 2,
XDisplayHeight() / 2) as its starting position.
See Q 3.18 in the fvwm FAQ for a description how you can do it
with the window manager.
