A difference between stock levels could be due to one of two reasons:
Distributor API: octopart.com will use live distributor offer data whereas the API uses data cached from regular feeds.
User country: octopart.com determines a user's country based on their IP address; whereas the API will default to "US" if the country is not specified.
Live distributor data can be sought through the API if explicitly requested.
