How do I sent a USR1? What is that for, it signals to nginx to start a new file?

Check http://wiki.nginx.org/CommandLine#Stopping_or_Rest... You'd have to move the log out from under nginx before sending it, I think. I'd personally use logrotate with a specially SIGUSR1-related config stanza if I had to do this, and wouldn't try and write the logic myself.
