Ping responses are always going to vary depending on the exact moment, it's to be expected. The game client only does its own ping check once every 30 secs and attempts to smooth out the result compared to the last few updates. The user's framerate would also impact the times as the UI subsystem only processes with one thread and CPU time spent processing rendering passes and instructions from other addons would impact the time both sides would be able to process their respective incoming messages.
