I figured out how to make this work on Ubuntu 13.04 in Unity. Since by default 
Unity only allows a few apps to display on the notification bar by default you 
have to enable whitelists back into 13.04.

How to re-enable the systray whitelist in Ubuntu 13.04

Add this ppa and run the following in terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:timekiller/unity-systrayfix
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Then log out and back in to restart Unity

Run the following command:

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"

Log out and back in to restart Unity one last time. When you log in and start 
Android Notifier you will have the Android Notifier in the top system tray.

Enjoy!
