Frank,

HE uses the extended files for these stats since the standard ones will soon be deprecated.  As Rene pointed out, the 
extended and standard delegation files from ARIN do not match for this prefix. I do not know why there is 
inconsistent data between the two, but this is something that ARIN should look into.  

I have been lead to understand that, for ARIN, the extended stats file reflects the registry state at a slightly 
different time (earlier by ~1 day) than the "standard" stats file. This is a likely explanation of the observed 
inconsistency.
