Spot price history does not agree with AWS

starcluster is reporting a different spot price history that what AWS is
showing online:

[ec2-user_at_awsmicro ~]$ starcluster spothistory m1.xlarge
StarCluster - (http://web.mit.edu/starcluster) (v. 0.93.3)
Software Tools for Academics and Researchers (STAR)
Please submit bug reports to starcluster_at_mit.edu

>>> Current price: $1.00
>>> Max price: $21.00
>>> Average price: $1.59

When I view the spot price history from a web browser for the same instance
type, I'm seeing a much lower current price. Why the discrepancy?
