You can find out exactly what you're waiting for by correlating this to the pg_locks table.
Grab the 'procpid' of your waiting query and run:
select * from pg_locks where pid=<thepid> and granted='f';
Notice, in the pg_locks table, the logic works slightly different... if you're 'waiting' (pg_stat_activity), then you haven't been 'granted' (pg_locks).
As far as documentation: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/monitoring-stats.html
