Hi Guys

I am currently using the TargetingIdeaService API (v200909) to get local 
monthly searches for keywords, in Australia, and Exact match.   This works 
well, and the figure I get matches the Keyword Tool Traffic 
Estimator<https://adwords.google.com/o/Targeting/Explorer?__c=1000000000&__u=1000000000&ideaRequestType=KEYWORD_STATS#search.none>,
 
but it is very different from the Keyword Tool Keyword 
Tool<https://adwords.google.com/o/Targeting/Explorer?__c=1000000000&__u=1000000000&ideaRequestType=KEYWORD_IDEAS#search.none>

I am confused as to which is an accurate figure to use for Local Monthly 
Searches, and which API to use.  For example, using the UI:

https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

Enter keyword 'pet insurance', selecting Australia, and English, and Exact 
the 'Keyword Tool' returns local monthly searches of 6,600, and using same 
parameters for the 'Traffic Estimator', returns 1,900

Which API is correct to use for an accurate figure?

Thanks
Mark
