I used the qualifier "active."
It's trivially easy to pull from a database your active versus non active subscription numbers. (I had to do such a query for work not that long ago.)
If they wanted to inflate the number, they'd go with copies of the game sold, because there are certainly people who bought the game, played for 30 days, and decided they didn't want to pay the monthly fee. Do they have a XIV account? Yes. Do they have an active XIV account? No.
I didn't log in myself last night. My new GTX 770 suddenly decided it didn't like my motherboard, and I had to update a bunch of the Intel firmware drivers.

I was the only lonely member of our FC that logged on last night, lol. But I beat titan Hm on the scholar and got my fifth relic, ran high and low level duty, picked up a level on fisher and dragoon, ran CT once, and beat my head against the Ifrit EX wall for an hour
