On my Fender Performer Stratocaster, I use Seymour Duncan SSL-2 and TB-16 '59/Custom Hybrid.
@OilCityPickups can approximate this arrangement with their Route 66 and The Creature models.
I do not know which Mojo designs work the same way.
For greater realism from the middle + split bridge pickup combination, consider the OCP Brass Knuckle.

How important is the in-between setting? If it's more important than the humbucker setting, you can get humbuckers with one rod magnet coil and one more humbucker-style coil. I've tried Gemini's version (well, one of them, he has about 5 different models!) and it's very, very good. It taps the rod magnet coil in the humbucker setting so the rod coil doesn't overpower the screw/humbucker coil. There's probably still a little compromise in both settings, but it's very close.
But if the humbucker setting is more important, I'd just get whatever humbucker you originally wanted, and put up with the in-between setting, and use a partial split resistor like @OilCityPickups said. It's not as good as a Strat, but it helps a fair bit. And you have the genuine unadulterated humbucker sound.
You could also maybe get a tap on the neck pickup for a very underwound P90 sound so it combines better with the middle pickup too (and sounds more like a Strat pickup when on its own)? That may well be overkill, though. And I've never tried that myself, I'm not sure how well it'd work... to my ears you would need to go below standard P90 output, even high-6K output still sounds more or less like a P90 in the neck position, just a bit clearer-sounding and less nasal.
