Well that's certainly something I didn't know! Thanks again Herbert! :D

Internally the value is used in PS mode. The reason why you can use any PS code _without_ the preceeding !:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pst-plot}
\begin{document}
\psset{yunit=2,xunit=10}
\begin{pspicture}(-0.1,-0.5)(1,2)
\psaxes{->}(0,0)(-0.05,-0.5)(0.75,1.75)
\psyTick(1.57){\frac{\pi}{2}}
\psyTick(PI 2 div){\frac{\pi}{2}}
\psxTick(0.08943089){\frac{110}{1230}}
\psxTick(220 1230 div){\frac{220}{1230}} \end{pspicture} \end{document}
