Whatever. I love Peeta. And I really really really hate the term Mary Sue. A lot.
I do think Peeta has flaws though. He was out of line with the way he treated Katniss at the end of the first book, and then he acts like a human and later apologizes. He is a sweet guy and he's not a Nice Guy either. But I do think that he needed the hijacking in Mockingjay to take the shine off his perfect-ness. He's a pretty well drawn character, but not as well drawn as Katniss. (Then again, no one else is as well developed as Katniss since the book is first person from her POV.)
If you want, I could find a definition of Mary Sue that Prim and Cinna fit. EVERYONE IS A SUE. Prim is wise beyond her years, smart, pretty and sweet. Cinna is clever, beautiful, a man who was raised in an oppressive society who was able to overcome it. What flaws do Cinna or Prim have, praytell?
