Not sure if this is what you mean, but suppose xvector={x_1,...,x_n} and yvector={y_1,...,y_n} 
then you could do something like

ListPlot[yvector, Ticks -> {Transpose[{Range[Length[xvector]], xvector}], Automatic}]

Mathematica automatically scales the x-axis so that it is linear with respect to the x-values, i.e. if x={1,2,10}, then the distance between the second and third element will be eight times longer than the distance between the second and first element. I would like the distances to be of equal length.
