AFAICT you were looking for the access time in either case.  Assuming
you don't have a mount with "noatime", were you really getting
different results from ls --time=access and stat's atime?

IOW, was your initial email's ls --time=access wrong somehow?

jmm at sublogic:/home/jmm% ls -l --time=access wget-log ; stat -c "%x" wget-log
-rw-r--r--    1 jmm      jmm          4166 Sep 16 01:03 wget-log
