Well, my best guess is that when the Doctor is reckoning his age/birthdays, he's usually counting his current incarnation, not his full chronological age in all incarnations. Also, since he bends time and space in his travels, his personal age is very relative. If he experiences an event that takes several hours in less than a minute, then would he be a minute older or hours older? If he is taking a long journey and the TARDIS compresses his experience of time, since the TARDIS is not operating at a fixed rate, judging his relative age is also difficult. And let's say I'm 40, and travel 100 years in the future, so will I be 40 or 140 when I'm there? Also, the doctor has super healing, so he may be 900, but he hasn't aged to 900 because part of his healing is not the atrophy of aging. Basically, any given answer will be both right and wrong. As the Doctor said "I'm a time-traveller. I point and laugh at archeologists"
