I haven't been able to find anywhere near that number of reports in the crash-stats error tracker [2].  Is there something I'm missing or does Mozilla get a very low subset of the plug-in based errors from Ubuntu users?

Plugin crashes are underrepresented in crash-stats because Firefox's 
plugin crash reporting UI is easy to miss. (It's just a narrow 
notification bar at the top of the window.) We have some indications 
that only 1% of plugin crash reports are submitted compared to 20% of 
Firefox crash reports.
