After looking at another controller the WLAN Summary Display showed 30,000+ clients, again we knew this wasn't accurate. After speaking with a Cisco SE we discovered there is a bug in 7.0.98.0, "WLAN summary display defect causing wrong count to be displayed, defect number CSCth52309"
This bug is fixed in 7.0.114.51 or greater.
As of this post this BUG was not in the bug tool kit. However it comes from a very reliable Cisco SE.
