This is not documented properly yeah. Best doc is the source, NodeStats.java exportVolatileFieldSet().

numberOfSimpleConnected is basically the number at the left - the total of CONNECTED and BACKED OFF. numberOfNotConnected is the rest - a variety of reasons why peers don't work. Many of the rest are the number of nodes in specific states (e.g. NEVER CONNECTED, DISABLED, TOO OLD, etc).
