Hi
I think it is based on GMT or UTC, whereas it should be reading the local time clock. For me in Australia in the morning it is reading 50 days when it is only 49 days.
There is a function to look up the date based on the local wordpress install. If I find it I will add it to the post, but you probably know it already
date_i18n
