To make add-apt-repository use port 80 by default, the 
/usr/share/pyshared/softwareproperties/ppa.py file used by add-apt-repository 
can be modified to use port 80.
Edit the file /usr/share/pyshared/softwareproperties/ppa.py
Search for "keyserver.ubuntu.com"
Replace it by "hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80" and save the file
add-apt-repository should work behind a proxy now.
