things still don't add up, acording to BLOCKCHAIN pool statistics BTC GUILD HAS 5% OF HASHING POWER AND SO DOES SLUSH now comes the big question , up to a couple a days more or less slush had only 3% and thier hashing power hasn't varied much so now we are picking up a higher market share with the same hashing power? and thus more BLOCKS , less blocks for btcguild with doble hashing and and same 5%? acording to them, GhashiO has gone down and has the same or more hashing power? so what conclusions can be made if any?, or are thier figures way off the ball park

When Blockchain tells you what the hashing power share of each pool is, it is based on the rate of blocks found. When your pool tells you it's own hash rate, it is based on the hash rate at which shares are submitted. Therefore discrepancies will exist based on pool luck. When your pool get's really lucky it will look like their hash rate is higher than it really is, and when it is unlucky, blockchain will make it appear the hash rate has dropped even if it has not.
