Often for each authenticated request there is also an unauthenticated 
request (the failed request) that comes from the browser. It first tries 
to access the page in anonymous mode, then, when it gets an unauthorized 
error, it asks the user for the login details and sends those so that it 
gets the page with '200'. Check your logs for unauthorized requests and 
it may make up the difference.
