no thatz wrong. xxx is the totan no of seeders + total no of complete piece collections between peers too. You can see this in anytime when downloading, compare the seeds and availability

Now if say out of those peers only one had 50% and the rest had 30% or less and the one with 50% completed is not active at the moment. the availability will be 2.300.
yyy is the % of data left after removing all the data represented by XXX. It works like in set theory.
