That's because queue.declare et al return
<quote>
[The] number of messages present in the queue [...] that are not
awaiting acknowledgement.
</quote>
(from the AMQP 0-9-1 spec xml)

whereas the 'messages' figure in rabbitmqctl and management includes
messages awaiting acknowledgement. You can get a breakdown with, e.g.,
   rabbitmqctl list_queues name messages_ready messages_unacknowledged
The messages_ready count should correspond to the count returned by the
AMQP commands.
