Default Frustrated AK play, is it me?

I am very frustrated with AK in NL cash games. 1-2 blinds, 2-4 blinds. I call 3 1/2 times BB raises with position consistently or in the BB with intention of trap or muck. I keep flopping top pair, and they keep getting there with AQ. I hate to whine. Looking at my stats I have been a big loser with ALL hands such as QQ, AK, AQ, AJ(rarely play that)KK, KQ, and AA. I play them hard when I flop it, easy muck when I dont. Not once have I been dominated in any of these situations. I dont know if I can get away from these hands at any time. It seems that the prayers of the dominated player keep getting answered.

This is on Party/UB....is it just a little unlucky or am I missing the boat somewhere?

Yet in tournament play I do well with these hands. I took a 2nd today worth a dime and only saw 8% flops thru 475 hands...and that includes shorthanded and headup. yet I also won 75% of all flops seen. In other words I was patient/aggressive. But these cash games are pissing me off. Ok so maybe I am a crybaby and just venting. But any suggestions apreciated.
