For tables, one is the raw number of rows on-disk and the other is the
number of rows predicted to pass the relation's quals. For something
like an appendrel that doesn't enforce any quals (today anyway), they
should probably be the same; but you need to be sure you're adding
up the right numbers from the inputs.
