So I've almost published an app on google play - then I find out I need to zipalign and also to sign the APK. There's no mention of any of this on the deployment guide?

Apparently Eclipse can do this automatically, but I can't for the life of me see how to enable or set this up.

Help?

Assuming your project is imported into Eclipse, this should fix your keystore problem.
double click on AndroidManifest.xml in the project sidebar
scroll down and click on 'Use the Export Wizard to export and sign an APK' (in export expand thinggie)
Select 'Create New Key Store'
type a location for the file (it can be anywhere, a good place is C:\Users\[username]\keystore
make a password, can be anything
click next, make an alias (can be anything, I have 'my keystore')
make a password (at least 6 chars)
set validity to at least 25 years
and type in some of the other info (at least one of them)
you can then export the apk.

Not sure if this will fix your problem but it might

This process is part of the export wizard, and should happen automatically when exporting an apk file from within eclipse...

I'd always just side loaded the apk onto my device when it was built. Anyway, it's successfully uploaded on play store now !
