Thanks Ingo, that supports my theory that correct komi for 9x9 is either 6 or 7. But possibly skewing the statistics is that most programs (?) are playing the 5,5 opening, which is probably 6 points to black. (I don't know if there is a better opening than 5,5, but I suspect that (at least) 4,4 and 3,4 are (at least) equal; most of my energy so far has gone on investigating the 5,5 opening to try and eventually prove something there.)
