Hey Lojolo,
Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines the steps to accurately test your iPod’s battery life, as well as the expected battery life times:

Once you have completed these steps, check out the following section:
If your test indicates that your iPod battery's playback time is significantly less than the times stated above, try these tips and tricks to get the most out of your iPod battery. Then test again.
If you still feel that you are getting significantly less than the expected amount of play from the battery, you can arrange for service on the iPod Service Request site. When you request service, we will ask you for your results of this test.
If your iPod is no longer covered by the limited warranty or an AppleCare Protection Plan, we also offer a battery replacement program.
Thanks,
Matt M.
