While the alignment might be off, more likely your regulator is bent. If the window ever got out of alignment and you just tried rolling it up harder, you probably bent the regulator. swing by a junkyard and pick up a 'new' one. Should be less than 20$.

Same thing happened to me a couple years ago. For awhile it would not go up at all, at least not without help from hands on both sides. I tried to bend the regulator back to straight, It worked without help, but left the small gap you speak of. Finally a 'new' regulator fixed the problem.
