Not accuracy, but resolution. But that's probably what you meant. The coarser the pitch, the less resolution you'll have. But unless you're direct driving a screw with over 25mm pitch, you should have enough resolution, depending on your requirements of course.
Don't discount the importance of speed, btw.

I want to use the same ball screw for x,y, and z, to make ordering parts easy, is that ok ?
theres no reason not to use the same screw for all 3 if it will work in your application.. but it sounds like you will have more screw that you need on a couple axis,, this is fine, just a little wastefull... you might save a little $$ if you go with a little shorter screw on the shorter axis.. if that matters to you.. but i do like the idea of using all the same screws, and maby you can get a discount for ordering more than 1 of the same thing... tho normally the qty discounts dont kick in till something like 5 or more in my experience...
