trying to understand hosts count

OK, First let me say I am new to Limewire and in the early learning stages. I am a 'refugee' from audio galaxy which has recently aquired alot of spyware baggage to which I very stronly object. I no longer choose to support or provide my files for them to share. They will just have to get along without me.

Now my 'newbie' question. I see in my Connections Tab View the number of hosts I am connected to. This varies wildly and seems not to be very stable. Why is that? Also this number is usually aroung 4K or 2K or 6K but NEVER anywhere near the number shown as Current Hosts in the Limewire Statistics Page of the web-site. I seems that I am connected to only a small fraction of the available hosts. Should I be concerned about this?

Thanks for any help
