A few Porkies is right.
Anyone else remember back to 2012 when we were told that 21,500 people packed into Western Springs stadium to watch the G.P. Two years on that figure is revised to 15,000!!
It's amazing how these crowd figures change. One year you want to over-emphasise the crowd to save the stadium, two years later they want to knock the event down to justify why it won't be held again.
With electronic ticketing they know exactly how many people came through the gates. So why the estimates? They can tell us if 9,123 people attended or if 9,124 came through the gate.

Maybe the differences in numbers relates to those that actually came through the gate (including complimentaries & passes) versus those that actually purchased tickets?
As an aside, I'm not sure they do know exactly. I still have my complete tickets (x2), including the barcoded tear-off section, which was only looked at on the gate, not scanned nor the end torn off to count later....maybe I was never there?

Be interesting to know how many people the springs can hold full,
I have seen the stadium absolutely full,standing 3 deep around the terraces and the bank and under the old pine trees full .They said I might be wrong but about 20 thousand full .There was no where near that on sat night ,
So maybe 9,ooo would be right /Our tickets deffinatly got scanned
