in my error log i am seeing messages like this:

2011/06/03 14:32:07 [error] 21125#0: *1768 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 216.248.232.5, server: MYDOMAIN.com, request: "GET /itsurvey HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://77.12.16.8:8081/itsurvey", host: "MYDOMAIN.com"

why is "upstream" connection being "refused"? and how is "upstream" different from "proxy"?

It's the same thing. It's your upstream, for which nginx is acting as reverse proxy. Proxying request for scripts to Apache.

thanks for any ideas or advice.

Check your Apache config. Paste your nginx config somewhere so that we can help you.
