I am using Spyder 2 Pro 2.2. What is the difference between/relation
between White Luminance and the Y value I get when I calibrate with the
Colorimeter CIE xyY? Thanks.

Cap Y is the current White Lumiance, and should match what is shown in the Info window for Cap Y. If it doesn't match you may be measuring in the uncalibrated state/calibrated state, thus causing the difference.
