There is no noatun plugin for Audioscrobbler.

What is Audioscrobbler?

n a nutshell, Audioscrobbler endeavours to be your personal music advisor. It grows to know what music you like by monitoring what songs you play on your computer. From this information you can discover other users that share some or all of your taste in music. You can also view data showing what your most-played artists are, and find out who likes a particular artist the most. Basically The Audioscrobbler Project is turning into a fantastic way of discovering new music, and discovering people who like the same music as you. 

 When you have listened to 500 songs, Audioscrobbler will begin to match you with other users that have a similar taste in music to you. A list of "similar users" will then appear on your personal stats page. In the meantime, non-members and people who have not submitted 500 songs can check out "Scrobbler-Sets". Here you can supply the names of 2 or 3 artists, and lookup a set of similar artists. This is a useful tool for discovering new artists if you are hunting for some new music to buy/borrow/download. 

The Audioscrobbler protocol is simple HTTP GET/POST requests, if you want to write an Audioscrobbler plugin for a piece of software not already supported, then start a thread in the forums or post on the developer mailing list. The plugin protocol is documented in the Wiki.
