Is there an option to tell it to put it say in the next available/non overlapping spot within the X window?
None that I am aware of.
If you really want non-overlapping windows, you should probably look at one of the many tiling window managers available for the X Window system.

xmapraised
XMapWindow(3X11) MIT X11R4 XMapWindow(3X11)
Name
XMapWindow, XMapRaised, XMapSubwindows - map windows
Syntax
XMapWindow(display, w)
Display *display;
Window w;
XMapRaised(display, w)
Display *display;
Window w;
XMapSubwindows(display, w)
Display *display;
Window w;
Arguments
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
w Specifies the window.
Description
The function maps the window and all of its subwindows that have had map requests. Mapping a window that has an unmapped ancestor does not
display the window but marks it as eligible for display when the ancestor becomes mapped. Such a window is called unviewable. When all
its ancestors are mapped, the window becomes viewable and will be visible on the screen if it is not obscured by another window. This
function has no effect if the window is already mapped.
If the override-redirect of the window is and if some other client has selected on the parent window, then the X server generates a event,
and the function does not map the window. Otherwise, the window is mapped, and the X server generates a event.
If the window becomes viewable and no earlier contents for it are remembered, the X server tiles the window with its background. If the
window's background is undefined, the existing screen contents are not altered, and the X server generates zero or more events. If back-
ing-store was maintained while the window was unmapped, no events are generated. If backing-store will now be maintained, a full-window
exposure is always generated. Otherwise, only visible regions may be reported. Similar tiling and exposure take place for any newly view-
able inferiors.
If the window is an window, generates events on each window that it causes to be displayed. If the client maps and paints the window and
if the client begins processing events, the window is painted twice. To avoid this, first ask for events and then map the window, so the
client processes input events as usual. The event list will include for each window that has appeared on the screen. The client's normal
response to an event should be to repaint the window. This method usually leads to simpler programs and to proper interaction with window
managers.
can generate a error.
The function essentially is similar to in that it maps the window and all of its subwindows that have had map requests. However, it also
raises the specified window to the top of the stack.
can generate a error.
The function maps all subwindows for a specified window in top-to-bottom stacking order. The X server generates events on each newly dis-
played window. This may be much more efficient than mapping many windows one at a time because the server needs to perform much of the
work only once, for all of the windows, rather than for each window.
can generate a error.
Diagnostics
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
