Villain is 50/5/0.6 over 100 hands. I take the free card on the turn and am faced with a non flush completing ace on the river. The ace should scare a thinking player based on my actions, but is there any value in bluffing here at micro? If yes, how big of a bet?

No, there is no value in bluffing.....

What is the mistake that uNL players make?

Thats right CALLING TOO MUCH. Thats why we valuebet and not bluff!

Ok a bluff here would be a possibility against some microstakes players, BUT DEFINITELY NOT this one. His stats are the definition of calling station.

This guy's a station, and he's made the correct river play by checking to induce a bluff.
