Are you trying to scale the render in the Output Module? If so, don't. I would suggest using one the of the presets in Adobe Media Encoder to start. If you need to scale the comp, be sure to use "Use Maximum Render Quality" and "Render at Maximum Depth". One of those switches uses a bicubic scaler which is better.
