Does this help more?

\version "2.19.54"

\paper {
    ragged-right = ##f
    scoreTitleMarkup = \markup \fontsize #12 \fill-line { "Title" }
    markup-system-spacing =
        #'((basic-distance . 0) ( minimum-distance . 0) (padding . 0) 
(stretchability. 0))
}

\new Staff { \clef bass f1 }

As you can see, there is essentially no space between the title and the staff.

Cheers,
Kieren.
