If you look at the uscan manual page, you will see that something like
this should work:

https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/thunderbird/addon/881
/fr/thunderbird/downloads/file/\d+/display_quota-([\d\.]*)-tb.xpi

Then write a debian/rules get-orig-source target that downloads the
.xpi file, unzips it, removes the stuff that isn't needed and creates
a tarball. Of course, that wouldn't be nessecary if you can get
upstream to release the source code as well.
