I'm not certain whether your concern is accuracy of the head tracking, or accuracy of the camera posisitioning. It sounds like the latter.
The OculusWorldDemo already handles the fact that the cameras (the eyes) are not located at the center of orientation. If you look at the code here you'll see that they calculate the eye distance as being 9 centimeters forward and 15 centimeters above the center of orientation, defined as the base the neck here.
Perhaps it's something that would better belong in Util_StereoConfig.cpp file in the SDK, but on the other hand, all the example code is covered under the Apache 2.0 license, rather than the OVR SDK license, so you can do more with it in terms of integrating it with your own code.
