That's not exactly how it works over there. A computer at a net cafe may have WoW installed, but each separate account must still pay initially for access to the game, and that is what TSE is accounting for. They pay additionally for more time just like we do in the west except they pay by the minute whereas we pay monthly.
We aren't counting how many times people are buying time cards or how many times people are paying their monthly subscription fee, but if you want to do that then sales of WoW should be 100 million+.
And for the record, "As of September 2008, approximately 13.5 million accounts have been registered and activated for the WoW games in Mainland China."
