I'm by no means an expert in templates and I'm not a Kindle user, but putting the following in your Plugboard may get you part way there:
Code:
Source template: {author_sort:re(([^\,]+)(\,|$)(.*),\1)}
Destination field: authors
Source template: {series:re(([^\s])[^\s]*(\s|$),\1)}{series_index:>2s|| - }{title}
Destination field: title
But if you have several authors called Smith, their books may be jumbled.
