dspam is storing the data in $DSPAM_HOME/data/$domain/$localpart here,
where the dspam username is assumed to be a regular email address
containing a localpart (before the @) and a domain (after the @). When a
dspam username is supplied through any of dspam's interfaces without a
domain, the bogus domain 'local is used in stead.
This means that you are using email addresses as usernames at the daemon
side, but not at the cli side. Probably this will show when you run
dspam_stats withuout supplying a userame (so it'll list stats for all
users).

this would be most conveniently solved by configuring the application
that hands your email to dspam. Postfix for instance has an option for
folding recipient addresses (flags=u in the pipe(8) command).
Depending on you have setup dspam and your MTA, this can probably be
solved easily. If you're still unsure, please provide more details about
your setup.
