How accurate is the-federation.info? Something is not right

There are weird things happening in the-federation.info page:

Users count is fluctuating for a few days
Some instance report wrong numbers such as lemmyonline.com which reports 97,024 posts where as the actual posts are less than 50 posts

I'm sure the reporting will get better. While the newest influx of redditors was expected, you never really know until it happens. I would say just give it some time for things to normalize.
I wonder if mass spam user and post deletions could explain it.. There is next to no protection OR clean up tools build into lemmy at this point.
