I go to school for Video Game Design, and am currently in a programming class that shows the make-up/creation of a bot. Almost every bot is just a program that's told to constantly loop/emulate something, and in order to do that, somewhere within the coding is a tally of how many times it's ran/how many times it will run till it reaches it's goal(when in some bot's cases, they never will). Long story short, it's not impossible to find out exact numbers with most bots, most keep score themselves. So Bandai very well could've gotten exact figures.(Sorry for the long explanation.)
