Counterclockwise when you are looking at the end of the motor, or looking down the motor barrel? Without specifing that... it could be either way.

Since screws drill in clockwise looking down the "barrel" of a drill, I would imagine that's where they're optimized. I'd probably bet my life savings on it. (Which is admittedly negative, since I'm in college.)
