You are just trying to upload a PKGBUILD contained in a tar.gz correct? You are not trying to upload the actual pkg.tar.gz file, correct?

Re: aur issue
In your package, you've got a URL field. url="www.something" should be url="http://www.something"
Furthermore, I'd suggest you read the AUR user guidelines wiki page, specifically the Submitting Packages to UNSUPPORTED section, and the Arch Packaging Standards wiki page as well.

Re: aur issue
update your pkgbuild locally, re-tarball it, then re-upload it, ensuring you check the "overwrite original" checkbox (or something similar to that)
