Google looking for sitemap at wrong location?

    Guys
    I am frustrated with this situation. Can you give me some advice on how to solve this?

    My robots.txt file:
    # BEGIN XML-SITEMAP-PLUGIN
    Sitemap: http://topforeignstocks.com/sitemap.xml.gz
    # END XML-SITEMAP-PLUGIN

    My sitemap at:http://www.topforeignstocks.com/sitemap.xml
    works perfectly fine.

    But google is looking at at the page with "www" in it:
    http://www.topforeignstocks.com/sitemap.xml
    and give the error:
    "Error loading stylesheet: An unknown error has occurred (805303f4)".

    Because of this out of 1,677 pages submitted just 806 is indexed in Google. Clearly my robots file asks Google to go my http:// site to get the Sitemap. But for some reason it is going to the www location.

    The 50% disappearance of my site pages happened a few weeks when my site database crashed and was pages were offline. Ever since my site has had the above issue. The ISP folks checked everything and said that server-side everything is fine.

    Thanks in advance.
