Have you tried using X to accomplish this?
Putting:
 emacs*geometry: widthxheight[+/-off+/-off]
into ~/.Xresources or ~/.Xdefaults or where such things are read on your
computer.

One caveat is that, seeing that emacs is a text application, X will
probably assume that the width and height are in characters instead of
pixels.  And you'll have to translate your desired pixel dimensions.
