Sorry mate but that is complete rubbish.
The official number was 310k for 360 compared to 350k for the Wii

That is pretty much spot on what VGC gave it last year.
As for MS getting their numbers i wouldn't have a clue. But you would think one of the top 10 richest companies in the world and one of the software/hardware giants would probably spend a few $$$ on employing people to feed them data from all over. I just cannot imagine a company as major as that will use that sort of method to obtain their data.
