1. make sure you are using the latest release of recount, it gets updated frequently.

2. it is well know that info will often not match. after blizz changed things so that dmg meters such as recount were unable to use private hidden channels to sync data they are limited to using the chat log to parse the combat info. this has several drawbacks in that there are many situations where the combat log does no display all info such as in specific cases like aoe. In an aoe situation for example the combat log parses all your damage to all efected targets but does not do the same for other people. that was done to prevent bloat. same thing will often happen with a pally for example, if they are throwing greater heals that add in the aoe heal efect it often does not register properly for other players. These are just a couple examples, there are many other situations where this comes into efect as well such as if they are filtering pet dmg etc.

Best thing you can do to help avoid this is to make sure you stay updated to latest version of recount and keep in mind that there are things that you or they could be doing that they arnt picking up.
