Something similar happened to me, but only when I had set the server
date forward and accessed the apache server pages with a future date.
As a result, the apache logs contained that future date. The
/var/lib/webalizer/webalizer.current file then contained a future date
and so with Webalizer working in incremental mode, it was ignoring all
log entries prior to that future date. The result was my correctly
dated logs were being ignored.
To fix this, and I know it seems to be the reverse of you are
describing, I cleared the /var/lib/webalizer/webalizer.current file and
purged my logs of future dated entries.
I can only hope that this helps you a little... :)
