Many accounts are not registered on the blockchain,  just like bitcoin addresses.

If a sub account name with a "." never gets approved by the parent, it will receive an error when you try to register it.

To make it clear: it's not necessary to register an account. That's why the total number of accounts is bigger than number of registered accounts. Unregistered account looks something like bitcoin address, it's not a name but a bunch of random characters.
