Dynamic filter alch_{ $optionsPageID }_position should be used to change the position parameter for the page with a specific ID. The default value is returned with the hook.
Example
We have an AO options page with the id of my-options-page, the code should look as follows:
function change_my_options_page_position() {
return 20;
}
add_filter( 'alch_my-options-page_position', 'change_my_options_page_position' );
