Search the mailing list archives of lilypond-user for "tempo markup" to find some examples of typesetting the metronomization as part of a text markup.
Sorry, I did not find an example.
The first hit includes the following example: ^\markup { Allegretto \tiny \note #"4" #0.7 = 80 }
If you go through some more emails in the search results, you will find more examples of including notes in a markup, such as http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2004-01/msg00264.html and hints to look at the documentation of Text Markup.
To change the position of the metronome mark, you have to find out what kind layout object in LilyPond is used to typeset it. To do that, you could start from the manual section on Metronome marks: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.2/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Metronome-marks.html#Metronome%20marks and follow the links MetronomeChangeEvent -> Metronome_mark_engraver -> MetronomeMark which gives the name of the layout object "MetronomeMark" and a list of the properties that are set by default. To see more properties that can be set, you have to follow the links to the different interfaces. To conclude, you could raise a tempo indication by \override MetronomeMark #'padding = #2.0 for example.
Sorry, my fault! The problem is that \override MetronomeMark ... sets the property within the scope of the current context, in this case in the Staff context. Since the MetronomeMark is typeset within the Score context, you have to explicitly specify also the context level where the setting should apply:
\override Score.MetronomeMark #'padding = #4.0
