Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

Do I have the right to pro-rate my rent the month I move out? Our lease ran from August 8, 2010-July 25, 2011 at 11:59am.

Usually my rent is $520 .... since the lease ends 6 & 1/2 days before the end of the month do I have the right to prorate it down? (I would only owe $410.97)

I live in Florida & am having a hard time finding laws that reflect this

You are required to pay through the last day of your lease. If you have been paying from the first of each month (even though your lease started on the 8th), then you would only owe through the 25th of July.
