I don't know about a plugin, but an Lscript wouldn't be tough to create. 
Even easier, just use this syntax from the expressions engine:
======
vector center(vector,vector)

This function returns a vector that is centered between the two argument 
vectors.
======

You'd use it this way (I think it seems there should be a better way, 
but this does work)

Create three expressions

center([MyNull.Position],[YourNull.Position]).x
center([MyNull.Position],[YourNull.Position]).y
center([MyNull.Position],[YourNull.Position]).z

Then apply them to

CenterNull.pos.x channel
CenterNull.pos.y channel
CenterNull.pos.z channel

and the rest is automatic.

It would be nice if it could be done in one expression as in applying
center([MyNull.Position],[YourNull.Position])
to the
CenterNull.pos channel, but the channels are broken out into their 
components and I don't see a way to recombine them into a single vector 
channel.

Anyone?
