I looked at his data. The top 5 books for Sept 5th were preorders from indie authors at $5.99. These probably were titles offered first for free to Prime subscribers as part of their Kindle First or similar promotion.
I'd also like to know why he still believes the day's bestseller sells 7,000 copies. It's been at this level for some time. Btw, here's how DG breaks down the rest of the top 10 all estimates, of course. I really wish he could score the actual figures.
