The Kicking Stance is very similar to the Sparring Stance. In Kicking Stance the rear foot should be about one stride behind the front foot. Both feet may be turned somewhat, the rear foot usually moreso. The body is turned mostly sideways. The knees are slightly bent. Weight is evenly distributed on both feet. The idea is that from this general-purpose stance you have many options: you can kick quickly with either foot, turn quickly in either direction, slide forward or back quickly as needed.
