Ditch the 2-element array for XTICKUNITS, thus:

PLOT,FINDGEN(100),XTICKS=2,XTICKUNITS='NUMERIC',$
POSITION=[.05,.2,.95,.8]

Array values for XTICKUNITS are only relevant for multi-level axes,
which are something else entirely. (If you run your command without the
POSITiON keyword, you will see a second x axis at the bottom of the plot.).
