Help Phone Kept Partially Awake??

So I noticed that today my phone says:

up time: 6:41

awake time: 2:49

Here's the thing...I have not been on my phone for 2:49. I think I've used it for about 15 total minutes total today (busy with work ha). I've read lots of threads about apps making the up/awake time the same (100%) and not letting your phone sleep. What apps or programs gives you a partial awake time? Is there an app to check it?

I mean it makes it kind of hard to do a trial and error app by app since I don't know at what point it's sleeping and what point it's awake (essentially it would take me 1 app per day to see if the numbers line up, or don't line up with my estimated usage).

For example, if it was 100% it would be easier to test because I would just uninstall, soft reset, and watch it for an hour to see if it's 100% or not, but because mine's at about 50%, that could be the 50% of time it's sleeping properly, if that makes sense!

Also, my usage is as follows (no specific program listed):

cell standby 32%
phone idle 30%
voice calls 23%
android system 11%
display 4%

Any suggestions or thoughts would be great!
 
The battery widget I use, BatteryLeft, gives Partial Awake Time (among other things). You can also set it to view "since last booted", "since last unpluged", etc.

Android System Info gives a ton of information, as well. But that is more for system information (cpu and memory) than battery usage.
 
If you have any programs on auto sync, the phone wakes until the sync is done (usually).
If you did the FB update, make sure the refresh is off. Some are seeing 100% wake even with the 1hr refresh interval.
 
Thanks for the tips, everyone! Will d/l the app and check out my facebook. Don't think I've used it at all in the last few days but that could be it!!
 
Remove the HTC text message widget (not the link) this worked for me. You will know if it worked by rebooting your phone and testing the awake time verse up time.
