Try the TableSpacing option:
In[6]:= pairs = Table[Random[], {5}, {2}];
In[7]:= OutputForm[TableForm[pairs, TableSpacing -> {0, 5}]] >> "file"
In[8]:= !!file
0.490603 0.679651
0.915618 0.278768
0.466052 0.441966
0.253975 0.634225
0.263516 0.785352
Alternatively, Write, WriteString, and other formatting functions can
be used to accomplish the same thing.
