Further to bartus11 , the fuser command can tell you which processes have files open on a filesystem - even if you cannot see the files.
A tidy shutdown of all applications followed by a reboot should give you the true disc space.
If you have cleanup routines which delete files, they may need review to make sure that they do not delete files which are open by an application.

sysinfo
SYSINFO(2) Linux Programmer's Manual SYSINFO(2)
NAME
sysinfo - returns information on overall system statistics
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/sysinfo.h>
int sysinfo(struct sysinfo *info);
DESCRIPTION
Until Linux 2.3.16, sysinfo used to return information in the following structure:
struct sysinfo {
long uptime; /* Seconds since boot */
unsigned long loads[3]; /* 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages */
unsigned long totalram; /* Total usable main memory size */
unsigned long freeram; /* Available memory size */
unsigned long sharedram; /* Amount of shared memory */
unsigned long bufferram; /* Memory used by buffers */
unsigned long totalswap; /* Total swap space size */
unsigned long freeswap; /* swap space still available */
unsigned short procs; /* Number of current processes */
char _f[22]; /* Pads structure to 64 bytes */
};
and the sizes were given in bytes. Since Linux 2.3.23 (i386), 2.3.48 (all architectures) the structure is
struct sysinfo {
long uptime; /* Seconds since boot */
unsigned long loads[3]; /* 1, 5, and 15 minute load averages */
unsigned long totalram; /* Total usable main memory size */
unsigned long freeram; /* Available memory size */
unsigned long sharedram; /* Amount of shared memory */
unsigned long bufferram; /* Memory used by buffers */
unsigned long totalswap; /* Total swap space size */
unsigned long freeswap; /* swap space still available */
unsigned short procs; /* Number of current processes */
unsigned long totalhigh; /* Total high memory size */
unsigned long freehigh; /* Available high memory size */
unsigned int mem_unit; /* Memory unit size in bytes */
char _f[20-2*sizeof(long)-sizeof(int)]; /* Padding for libc5 */
};
and the sizes are given as multiples of mem_unit bytes.
sysinfo provides a simple way of getting overall system statistics. This is more portable than reading /dev/kmem. For an example of its
use, see intro(2).
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EFAULT pointer to struct sysinfo is invalid
CONFORMING TO
This function is Linux-specific, and should not be used in programs intended to be portable.
The Linux kernel has a sysinfo system call since 0.98.pl6. Linux libc contains a sysinfo() routine since 5.3.5, and glibc has one since
1.90.
