Have you configured log rotation? When rotating logs, it is common to gracefully restart apache to write to new log files.I found the answer in /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 /etc/init.d/apache2 reload is executed when logs are rotated.
I use cronolog because it avoids the need to signal httpd. cronolog also has a number of other nice features, including running as a different user id than the web server (so a rogue CGI cannot modify the log files), flexible file naming, and automatic symbolic linking. (I'm using version 1.7.0 beta with the jumbo patch).
