You could write: "My application is for the position of junior web assistant." It depends on where in your letter you are going to put it, it wouldn't be a good opening sentence for example. There is nothing wrong with your original sentence by the way.

Yes, you're correct. The word "I" can put people off sometimes. Employers want to know what you can do for their company, not what you're doing for yourself at this moment or any given moment.

Also, making a request is gentler than simply telling someone what you are doing.

Please, accept ... - This sounds less self-centered than "I am.."

Try saying, "Your advertisement for .... in XXXXX interests me and I am applying for this position."

I don't see anything wrong with starting a sentence, or letter, with "I."
