Who knows how the calculate it? I think you only have to watch for 3 mins to be counted or something stupid like that. But you don't need stats to work out that the CL is 10 times bigger than the super bowl. Nobody outside north america gives a shit about the SB whereas the CL is global. Also, 2/3 of China are sharing a clapped out B&W TV so that only counts once.
