Misleading headline, its still 7% short in total servers polled.

I prefer the description "100% accurate" to "misleading".

If I'd have used "Market Share" instead of "Active Site Market Share", you might have had a point.

Would you have prefered this title? ...

"Nginx now within 1% of IIS's Active Site Market Share and within 7% of Server Number Market Share"

One could also read it as "IIS requires 7% more servers to run 1% more websites than nginx". Hmm... Sounds like a potential blog post...

It is within 1% across all sites. Across large sites it's 7%.
