My suggestion would be to add to the algorith the "rookie factor" where rookies are not put on the same alliance if at all possible. Also, when an alliance has a rookie team, the alliance they're playing against would also have a rookie team.

I respectfully disagree. In some matches the teams will be evenly balanced. In other matches they won't be balanced at all. That isn't a bad thing. You have to be able to adapt and learn from each match, whether you have helpful pairings or not.
The match scheduling has been pretty good this year. Sure, some teams will end up with somewhat easier schedules than others. That happens in every other sport too.
