I never found anything in php either so I came up with a workable solution:

The difference between one day and another is 86400. (In PHP it is).
So if we wanted to find out the difference between date1 and date2 we can do
following:
$date_diff_in_days = ($date1 - date2) / 86400;

This is how I tested it:
$date1 = strtotime("5 January 1990");
$date2 = strtotime("5 January 1991");
$date_diff_in_days = ($date2 - $date1) / 86400;
print "There are ".$date_diff_in_days;

As easy as.
Hope that helps. Let me know how you go.
