Comment:

 This has indeed been changed in BP 1.6-bleeding.

 The idea is this: The "total members" number that you were formally seeing
 (2,521) is actually not very meaningful. While it may represent the
 correct number of WP accounts on your site, throughout the rest of
 BuddyPress, only active members are included in this kind of total count.
 This caused very misleading results when you had a lot of members with no
 activity, qualifying (in my book) as a bug.

 See #4061, r5987

 If you prefer to have the less meaningful 2,521, you should create a child
 theme of bp-default that includes the file activity/index.php, and swaps
 out the use of `bp_get_total_member_count()` with the old
 `bp_get_total_site_member_count()`.
