As far as I know, cPanel has a single apache access log that it uses for all
users.
When you view your logs in cPanel, you are seeing the lines from the main
log file that cPanel has decided "belong to you".
At least on my host/servers, unfortunately it frequently does not find every
access (or error).
you need to ask your host to look through the log manually and hopefully
there is some way they can find the extra lines that you might be missing.
