Not able to install uci, getting the following error. Why can't we have the binaries directly ?

Installation fails because polyglot-chess is failing. uci depends upon polyglot-chess.

You do have visual studio 2010 installed on your system right? If you want binaries you can go to the polyglot-chess release page and download it from there.

Caveats - Only windows 64 bit binary is available and you'll have to install polyglot-chess manually. Sorry for the hassle but this is the current state of affairs. Hopefully npm will allow better binary distribution in future (see this issue - https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/1891)

Let me know if it helps.
