Like this...

--======================================
choose folder returning fldr
list folder fldr without invisibles returning aList
choose from list aList with multiple selections allowed returning bList
set cList to {}
repeat with i from 1 to count of bList
set end of cList to ("" & fldr & item i of bList) as alias
end repeat
set mydesktop to path to desktop from user domain as alias
tell application "DropStuff"
stuff cList with format StuffIt5 into mydesktop
quit
end tell
--======================================

To answer your original question, Brandon, the way to give DropStuff a
'multiple file alias' is to put the aliases in a list...

eg {alias "HD:Folder:File 1", alias "HD:Folder:File 2"}
