The discrepancy can be (at least partly) explained by the fact that the
script producing the missing stats has some heuristics about packages
to ignore.  Package names matching these regexps are not flagged as
missing:
    next if $k =~ /plugin/i;
    next if $k =~ /^(lib|compat-|xfce4-|gtk-|kmod-|fonts?-)/i;
    next if $k =~ /(-devel|lib[s0-9]*|-python|-perl|-servers?|-clients?|-tools?)$/i;
    next if $k =~ /(-contribs?|-docs?|-x?emacs|-utils?|-fonts?)$/i;
Package having a summary containing this regexp:
      next if $BZOWN->{$k}->{'summary'} =~ /(binding|library|module|utilit)/i;
And there is a short blacklist:
  "autodownloader" => 1,
  "theora-exp" => 1,
  "freetype1" => 1,
  "paragui" => 1

HTH...
