Battery just went crazy! How can I figure out what is causing it to drain so fast?

Around 2:00 or 3:00 this afternoon I noticed my phone felt a bit hot, but since I had just taken it out of my pocket I didn't give it much thought. I took about a 3 hour nap and when I woke my phone had shut off due to the battery being drained. I believe it was almost full when I started my nap, so that means it drained in about 3 hours while not being used.

I charged it back up to about 32% and took it off the charger. In less than 2 hours I was getting the warning to plug it in because the battery was low! When I looked at the battery usage it showed:

Android System: 37%
Cell standby: 20%
Wi-Fi: 20%
Phone idle: 13%
Display: 10%

How can I figure out what is happening with my battery?

I've figured out that my phone is staying awake 100% of the time. Partial wake usage shows Android System acounts for most of the usage, with "UID 10016" using most of the rest. Does anyone know what UID 10016 is?
