I can't claim to be an expert in freenet internals, but I'll try to 
explain these terms as good as I can :)
The backed off nodes, are nodes that couldn't receive messages due to 
the rate limiter (which is, btw, causing a lot of pain currently - my 
node has about 100 connected nodes, of which 60 are all the time backed 
off). Rejected means that the node has rejected the message due to 
being (seriously) overloaded or perhaps due to some error condition. 
The restarted nodes is IIRC because the node sent a reply.restart 
message (the message restarted somewhere in freenet, don't know in what 
conditions this happens).
