Those certs in the search statistics also include were the operating
system was listed as "Not Vulnerable", and some of them are summary
lists, which duplicate all previous listings.

So a search for any platform will reveal more certs than there actually are.

You have to look at each cert document and manually weed out the
duplicates and summaries to get the true totals.

Statistics are useful, but raw data is sometimes misleading.
