In addition to your lost+found blocks, there are blocks used
for superblocks, bitmaps, group descriptors, inodes, journal,
indirect blocks, and probably others too.
As a test I just created an empty 32MB ext3 filesystem:
# mke2fs -j /dev/VG0/test
It has 14% used:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VG0-test 31729 4127 25964 14% /test
