It's possibly a bug, but it could also just be a difference in the way
beagle-search presents its information.  (It's not by URI type or data
source.)

Which results to you feel are more "correct"?  Among those two sets of
results, what are the differences?

Just eyeballing your beagle-query results here, you say you see only two
conversations in beagle-search.  Based on the beagle-query output, you
have two emails there (conversations) and four mail attachments.  Those
attachments I believe show up as documents in beagle-search.  My guess
is that those four plus the number in your beagle-query output equals
18.  The two news feeds look correct to me.
