I have no idea, there is still the possibility that it has been deleted or something.

There have been over 145000 posts posted here, so keeping all of them would make a very large database, and decrease speed/efficiency. I often delete old threads, and try to keep the post total around 50000.
It makes sense that your post counter should go down when those threads are deleted, but people always 
at me when their post counters go down, so I stopped them from being decreased during pruning.
