Comment (by pro99):

 Thanks Sergey. Yes the sites do get regular visits, about 100 per day for
 the ones we tested first. We upgraded our production sites from not
 needing scheduled posts today, which get 1.5MM page views. As for the host
 all sites are on the Rackspace Cloud, Cloud Sites to be precise. I opened
 a ticket with them asking for their engineers to look into this since
 you're mentioning the cron API is intact. Could be something else
 interfering? I'm guessing other site owners will see this behavior...
 unless it's just us. One other thing I can think of: we are using
 CloudFlare. Do scheduled posts and the cron function run internally, or
 does it go over the internet and back into the site? CloudFlare security
 rules might be intercepting it, thinking it's an attack.
