I go to download and it says 30 of 30 dl'ing. When I check to see how many registered users are online, I only see 12. Are they just doing multiple downloads or am I missing something.

Online users are people that have visited a page on l4y within the latest 3 minutes. Unfortunately, some have been in the queue for much longer and they don't need to browse l4y for that.

What Molo said, plus the downloading/queued numbers are only updated at specific intervals as well (its either 3 or 5 minutes) - the download server obviously knows the exact numbers but to prevent repeatedly polling the file servers it caches the results for a little while...
