Following is a response from DHS Senior Sampling Specialist, Mahmoud Elkasabi:

From the frequencies you sent, I assume you are using the PR dataset. If so, the results look OK. We control the weighted n vs. n only in the HR dataset, where the weighted total of completed household will match the unweighted total, but this is not necessarily the case on the individual level in the PR.
