Determine reaction rate from reaction time?
The reactant orders in iodine clock reactions generally turn out to be first order.  Your calculated orders are suggestive of first order dependences, but there is a systematic error evident in the data that possibly stems from the experimental design.  In addition, I don't believe that the manner in which you calculated the orders is correct.  The approach in this experiment is to use the method of initial rates.  Briefly, a differential rate law (which gives instantaneous rate as a function of concentrations) can be written as 
rate $=k[\ce{A}]^n [\ce{B}]^m$ for a reaction $\ce{A + B -&gt; products}$.  To find the order of reactant A, for example, one varies the initial concentration of A and keeps the concentration of B constant. This generates a pseudo-rate law in which the concentration for B is treated as a constant(k'):  rate = $kk'[\ce{A}]^n$.  This relation can be linearized as follows:  

$$
\begin{align}
\log \text{rate} &amp;= \log kk'[\ce{A}]^n\\
\log \text{rate} &amp;= \log [\ce{A}]^n + \log kk'\\
\log \text{rate} &amp;= n \log[\ce{A}] + \log kk' \tag{I}
\end{align}
$$

Trials are conducted in which [A] is varied and the initial rate is determined.  A plot of log rate vs. log[A] should be linear and its slope should equal n, the order of reactant A. If, on the other hand, we solve EQ I for n we get 
$$
\begin{align}
n &amp;= \frac{\log \text{rate} - \log kk'}{\log[\ce{A}]} \\
n &amp;= \frac{\log \frac{\text{rate}}{kk'}}{\log[\ce{A}]}  
\end{align}
$$

Thus calculating n as $\log \text{rate}/\log[\ce{A}]$ (your approach) is not fully correct because the pseudo-rate constant $kk'$ is not accounted for.  I plotted your $[\ce{HSO3-}]$ data in the form of $\log \text{rate}$ vs. $\log [\ce{HSO3-}]$ and obtained a value for n (the slope) of 0.84 with $r = 0.997$ (note: the rates must be treated as negative values because reactant is being consumed).  I advise you to attempt such a plot for the data where $\ce{[IO3-]}$ was varied.  Regarding the systematic error, you should think about the fact that you determined average rates experimentally, meaning reactant concentration was actually decreasing during the timed intervals and, therefore, the rates you calculated reflected an average reactant concentration, not an initial concentration.
