Facebook Graph API returns inconsistent number of friends with Facebook profile

I noticed that using the new Facebook API to search for friends of users leads to the fact that a number of friends close, but not always accurate, the number of friends displayed in the user profile returns several friends.

Documentation here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api

For example, on this page, I click https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends and see JSON for 477 friends, while my facebook profile page shows the number 478.

Does anyone know why there is inconsistency?

My two penneth: I noticed that the number of friends that appear on my profile varies (by 1)! I don’t know what is the reason for this inconsistency, but I suggest you regularly check this number in your profile and see if this suits you.

In terms of the Graph API, the difference between counting friends in my profile and the data returned by the API is 2.
