What is your status_update_interval (in nagios.cfg)?

I'm guessing if it's set to 30 seconds then maybe status.dat isn't 
getting created until the first 30 seconds pass, which would explain this.

Unless you have a large number of services you can set this pretty low 
without impacting performance, and a lower value gives better 
responsiveness on the CGI.
