The value on MaxBytes must be higher than the gauge, otherwise mrtg will
ignore it.

Try change this:
MaxBytes[uptime]: 365 (or higher)
And
Unscaled[uptime]: n

But, maybe it's not my job, but, why you want to monitor uptime as a
separate graph?
You can get it simple monitoring your interfaces by snmp (mrtg informs
uptime unless you pass "noinfo" option) or adding a few lines above your
scripts, passing uptime and servername, like this shell script:
UPTIME=`uptime | cut -d "," -f1,2 | cut -c14-30`
HOSTNAME=`hostname`
echo $UPTIME
echo $HOSTNAME

See manual for more info...
