how did they come up with these server counts ?

Slav...Taken from the bottom of the survey:
"An ISP is said to host a server if its name servers have control over the block of IP addresses that the server is in. Since a large ISP might delegate subnets to a smaller one, a single web server may be counted several times towards an ISP and its upstream providers."
Ulfie....I'd agree these numbers are a bit inflated since it's based on ownership of ip's rather then physical machines. Still, hat's off to those fine companies that made the list.
