You can have uscan just look for the directory, as with ncbi-tools6:

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-med/ncbi-tools6.git;a=blob;f=debian/watch;h=03093f53f463965cb8febcf1803d6da1ce828e10;hb=HEAD

The debian/watch syntax even defines a downloadurlmangle option that
should allow uupdate to work, at least for HTTP URLs (as you have).  I'm
not sure if anyone ever implemented FTP downloadurlmangle support, but
don't hugely care because I generally prefer to download archives
manually anyway.
