I'm quite new to CakePHP as well, but I check for uniqueness after
validating
the data.

This example comes from the IBM CakePHP tutorials
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/views/opensource/libraryview.jsp?search_by=cook+web+sites+CakePHP

if ( $this->User->validates($this->data) )
{
  if ( $this->User->findByname($this->data['User']['name']) )
  {
    $this->User->invalidate('name');
    $this->set('name_error', 'User already exists.');
  }
}
