I just checked a few of my servers which have had this issue.
We are using Monit 5.5 and m/monit 2.4.
The monit poll time is 15 seconds.
I have changed the Acceptable Report Skew from 3 to 10 for these servers. I
will monitor it for a day to see if the issue persists for these servers. I
will probably send the logs across if this doesn't fix it.

Also, I ran monit -v on one of the hosts, and I saw the following:
 M/Monit(s)         = http://192.168.48.1:8080/collector with timeout 5
seconds using credentials
Where is this 5 second timeout set? Will increasing this timeout fix the
issue?
