passive checks for non-24x7 hosts going stale outside check_period

I have a distributed set-up where the web interface server never
does any checks. Freshness checking is enabled on the web interface
server with a check command that will alert that the service/host
is stale.
Everything works fine except for those hosts that are not monitored
24x7.
For example, services/hosts that are monitored 9am-5pm will be reported as
stale every morning at 9am. The service/host goes stale on the active
monitoring servers too, a service/host check will be forced, and the
result will be sent to the web interface server at which point the web
interface server is happy again.
I would think that Nagios would not include time outside of
the check_period when calculating how fresh a service/host is
but that appears not to be the case. (Please correct me if I
am wrong.)
Does anybody have any tips on how to handle this situation?
I'm using Nagios v2.9.
