I usually do once a week a pacman -Syu but no updates at all for at least a month. ... If you use a normal mirror and not the monthly archive the original question was about, then your mirror may have stopped updating for some reason or another. Choose another one.

I think pacman uses the Arch mirrorlist in the /etc/pacman.d directory.
I have the first 3 (Worldwide) activated and the 24 mirrors in my country (Netherlands) activated.
According to the www.archlinux.org/mirrors/status page of the pacman Worldwide mirrors mirror.rackspace.com is syncing though seems out of sync.

Hmmm thinking about this I moved the first Worldwide mirror mirrors.evowise.com, which is out of sync, 2 positions down so that mirror.rackspace.com is the first. Trying again pacman -Syu I do now get a month of updates waiting to be installed. Good to know that a out of sync mirror can inhibit updates ! ~Harm-Jan
