I am not sure if it's something to do with your membership. Otherwise your target domain has been taken already.
Because free websites, such as Siterubix and other free website providers on the web, use sub domains, not paid owned domain names.
So chances are that whatever name you chose was already bought by somebody, either before or after you started to use it.
Although free members can use SiteDomains to buy domains, as far as I know Premium membership is still required to have an owned domain website hosted at WA. ~Jude
Site rubix is a subdomain. For example, you want, yourdomain.com and you have yourdomain.siterubix.com. The only chance if the .com is not available, try yourdomain.net or yourdomain.org, yourdomain.co.abc.
But .com is much recommended, so you can add some words closer to your target domain. For example, myyourdomain.com

Thanks Piof, but if its already taken why did it allow it as available at Siterubix?

Thanks Jude for more clarification.
Thank you Piof, I get it now. Very helpful explanation.
