Your collection will be made up of Collect objects, which have a position attribute. Assuming you're using a CustomCollection, you can modify the position of the Collects by updating the CustomCollection: http://api.shopify.com/customcollection.html#update

From the examples, to update a collection, you can use:

PUT /admin/custom_collections/#{id}.json

With the following payload:

{
  "custom_collection": {
    "body_html": "<p>The best selling ipod ever</p>",
    "handle": "ipods",
    "id": 841564295,
    "published_at": "2008-02-01T19:00:00-05:00",
    "sort_order": "manual",
    "template_suffix": null,
    "title": "IPods",
    "updated_at": "2008-02-01T19:00:00-05:00",
    "image": {
      "created_at": "2012-12-11T12:01:29-05:00",
      "src": "http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0006/9093/3842/collections/ipod_nano_8gb.jpg?0"
    },
    "collects": [
      {
        "product_id": 921728736,
        "position": 1
      },
      {
        "id": 841564295,
        "position": 2
      }
    ]
  }
}
