Yikes that's terrible!
I don't think they differentiate between full Y fare anymore in terms of upgrade waitlist so you would be #1 if there's no EXP in front of you AFAIK. MIA-PTY is usually pretty easy to upgrade -- I've seen Golds get it even with a companion -- so you should be pretty set.
Make sure to get AA to credit you the right amount of EQPs when the dust settles.
Edit: I forgot to mention for your MIA-PTY flight tonight, the agent might have just put you on same-day standby list? If so, your position should be #1 as they process that before they do upgrades.
