How many hours in a day is there sunlight?
Amounts of daylight vary by latitude, so there is no single answer. After reviewing some data from Encarta based on the amount of sunlight on the 15th of each month, I have found there to be 4,518h 5m of daylight in a year along the 40 degree latitude in the Northern Hemisphere. This number is a rough estimate, but should provide some insight to your question.

How did the Jews calculate the hours in Biblical times?
In Biblical as well as Talmudic times (and for certain halakhah-purposes today too), the hours were calculated from sunrise to sunset (one-twelfth of that period was one daylight hour) and from sunset to sunrise (one-twelfth of that period was one hour of the night). The position of shadows was an approximate indicator whenever the sun was shining (which in Israel is a lot, even in winter).

How does the water clock work?
The water clocks were originally made from two containers of water, one higher than the other. The water then travelled from the higher container to the lower container through a connecting tube. The containers had markings on them to show the level of the water and these marks told the time.
The design was improved upon over the years and adapted to become easier to use and more accurate. One of the more notable changes was the addition of a floatation device. As the water dripped from the higher container to the lower container, the level of water rose and with it went the float. This float was connected to a stick with notches that, as it moved higher and higher, moved a hand around a clock face.
How did the Aztecs keep track of time?
The Aztecs had two types of calendars.
The first is the scared calendar known as the Tzolkin. It combines the numbers from 1 through 13 with a sequence of 20 day-names. It works in a similar manner to our named days of the week, and their date within each month. So you might have 5-Chikchan (like our Sunday the 5th) followed by 6-Kimi (as we would have Monday the 6th). After 260 days the same number/name combination will re-occur, and the calendar starts anew. Their use of the vigesimal (base 20) numbering system probably relates to fingers and toes, whereas the 13 nicely fits the growth phase of the moon which isn't visible when new and appears full for two days on end, thus appearing to have a 13 day growth cycle. Alternatively, the length of the Tzolkin may be related to the human gestation period of nine months (273 days). It has been suggested that 260 days is the time between a woman suspecting her pregnancy (she doesn't menstruate) and when she gives birth.
The second is the agricultural calendar known as the Haab, or vague year. It consists of 18 months, each of 20 days. An addition of a five-day month (a period of apprehension and bad luck named Uayeb) gives us 365 days, an approximation of a year. This calendar's primary purpose was to keep track of the seasons, for seasonal and solar events would occur on roughly the same day of each year. The Maya were aware of the annual quarter day discrepancy, but it is not known if they ever did anything about it.
These two independently running calendars each begin again every 260 and 360+5 days. However, every 52 years they coincide.
