Look into Mic6 or K100 alum tooling plate. It's not bound with stresses that cause the extruded stock to warp. Don't know if you can get it in bar stock. It's a bit softer than 6061-T651 but it's a lot more stable.
[edit]
You might be able to straighten the bar stock out with a hydrolic press, provided the pieces aren't too long. (i.e. you prolly won't be able to straighten out a 1"x3"x12 foot bar, but you could straighten out a 1"x3"x18" bar fairly well)
