If you look at the page source, the server name column is not justified.
 You can fix that for yourself in the source.  In the copy I have, it's in
bbdisplay/pagegen.c around line 409.  Look for something like:

        fprintf(output, "<TR class=line>\n <TD NOWRAP><A
NAME=\"%s\"> </A>\n", h->hostname);

Changing the <TD NOWRAP> to <TD NOWRAP align=left> ought to do it.
Recompile, then copy the new bbisplay/bbgen binary over to your server/bin
directory.

Your milage may vary, etc...

BTW, both Google Chrome for Linux and Firefox-3.5.6 show the server names
left justified.
