For the record, if you're running the script with 'python uptime.py' you don't need to chmod it. Stating 'python uptime.py' just feeds it directly into the python interpreter.

That first line of the script tells it to use the python interpreter, so that you CAN just use it as an executable.

For the record, I got it to work.

All I did was create the script on the phone itself with 'nano uptime.py' as the normal user. Then under Billboard settings, I put in

Code:
Uptime: {script:python /home/user/uptime.py}
The uptime.py is the exact same as ataristic posted.
