How accurate are the measurements within cPanel ?
And if they were not accurate, what could cause a false reading?

The usage stats are normally very accurate. The only thing I can think of that would cause the database count to be inaccurate, to give an example, is if someone created a database directly in MySQL instead of in cPanel. Is there more to your question, i.e. is there a particular problem you are looking to solve?
Because some of the calculations are expensive, cPanel & WHM tends to cache the results for a few minutes. Data in the Stats Bar is not realtime due to this.
If you need to force an update of the data, remove the cache files in /home/user/.cpanel/datastore and /home/user/.cpanel/cache/filesys.
