Be sure they multiply your number by 100 at least. I was getting numbers for "evil bots" way exceeding possible good and malicious traffic.

They are probably counting every single http request rejection as an evil bot
I did some math, and even if they would count every http pass through together with rejection traffic, their numbers would still be greatly exaggerated.
