This was sort of a bad paste, I did it when there was no current activity.  The
'in' side looks fine normally.  Here's another one with activity:

      wlan0  in     11.364 KB/s         71.956 KB/s           95.683 MB
             out     0.000 KB/s          0.000 KB/s            0.000 KB

There's definitely output, just not accounted for on the 'wlan0' interface.
If you look at iwn0, there it is:

netstat -I iwn0 -i 1 shows:

            input           iwn0           output
   packets  errs idrops      bytes    packets  errs      bytes colls
         0     0     0          0         64     0       9456     0
