You could start by giving the following line a try:
server=/uribl.com/<URIBL DNS mirror here>

I tried this, but that is not working, as expected as the mirrors are not DNS 
resolving mirrors but just alternatives for uribl.com as far as I can see.


You may verify that 54.153.32.255 is answering DNS requests as advertised, by running a lookup using one of the test points mentioned in https://uribl.com/about.shtml#testing

~$ dig +short 2.0.0.127.multi.uribl.com @54.153.32.255
127.0.0.14

server=/uribl.com/ff.uribl.com
server=/uribl.com/54.153.32.255

Try again after removing that first line:
Only the second *server* line above is stating an IP address (54.153.32.255) as the target upstream resolver for domains ending in uribl.com. Don't forget to restart dnsmasq to apply your changed configuration.

To test whether dnsmasq would correctly forward DNS requests for *.uribl.com, you may omit @54.72.143.21, or replace it with 127.0.0.1 or your dnsmasq's private range IP address (whatever is appropriate for your situation).

Since you indeed seem to intend to forward specific domains to a separate upstream resolver, and dnsmasq can easily handle that, installing unbound for just that purpose seems a little oversized.

If your dnsmasq host system is severly restricted, it may be beneficial to revert to using dnsmasq only.

On the other hand, if you'd have other, additional reasons to use unbound, it's probably ok to stick with it. Note that port 533 is registered for a different purpose, though - for choosing a custom port for unbound, refer to
https://www.iana.org/assignments/service-names-port-numbers/service-names-port-numbers.xhtml?search=533

Even then, having dnsmasq forward *.uribl.com to their DNS mirrors could be applied and would even save a few cpu cycles, by avoiding unbound's full recursion.
