If you look at the downloaded file (in /var/lib/smart/channels),
does it look OK - or is it missing data or empty or something ?

If you have old files in there, you might want to remove those.
In case they were downloaded badly, but with correct timestamp ?

There is also a test case for the smart "fetcher", run it with:
make test TEST=tests/fetcher.py

You could also try whether cURL works all by itself, by running:
curl http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.3/addons/x86_64/repodata/ 
repomd.xml
