look in your nginx.conf. I have the following line

        log_format  main        '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] 
"$request
"'
                                '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
                                '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

        access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
        error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;

( sorry for the wrap )

Which itemises the fields. Obviously yours is different, but it'll give
you the list.
