They sleep very often. If you see your Rabbit sitting their with a blank look on its face it may be sleeping. They do not have to have their eyes closed to sleep. They can sleep with there eyes opened. They also can sleep with their eyes closed (Sounds like my kids)

Why do you never see your rabbit sleep He never seems to sleep and when you walk in the room at anypart of the day or night he always seems to be awake?

Rabbits have a unique sleep pattern called polyphasic sleep, which means they sleep in short bursts throughout the day and night. They have an instinct to be alert and attentive, so they have periods of light sleep where they can easily wake up. Even though you may not see your rabbit sleeping, it is likely getting plenty of rest in these short intervals.

I believe they sleep for about 6-8 hours. My bunny does anyways. That is possible. Rabbits sleep off-and-on during the day time and overnight. They don't sleep very deeply. Rabbits don't always close their eyes when they're sleeping, so it can be tricky to know if they're awake or not.

Is a pet rabbit nocturnal?

Pet rabbits aren't nocturnal because they sleep at night. Rabbits are crepuscular: this means they're most active for the hours around dusk and dawn. Rabbits don't sleep all night like humans, though: they nap off and on but also hop around, graze on hay, play with their toys, etc. It's not a great idea to keep your pet rabbit in your bedroom because they do make some noise overnight and they definitely make noise early in the morning, probably earlier than you want to wake up!
