SV more dps less overall damage and MM less DPS and more overall damage?

With more pieces having ArP on them and you upgrading to them MM should be scaling better than SV. I actually went to the ArP (no arcane shot) build for MM from the cookie cutter SV spec and I've seen a large increase in my DPS.
Also, the latest EJ numbers has MM once again beating SV in BiS gear.
Here.
1. MM Total DPS: 14420,33
2. SV Total DPS: 13081,28
3. BM Total DPS: 12627,01
The differences are quite substantial, especially between MM & SV. Please note that these were updated 1-19-10.
Edit: Also, if you look at their BiS gear choices they are stacking ArP and hitting the ArP Hard Cap without trinket procs saving the trinkets for AP and Agi procs.

Whats really interesting to me is the difference between BM total DPS and Survival total DPS is only about 500. Its a fairly large gap, but not as large as I thought.

In BM the hunter benefits greatly from ArP, more so than MM & SV. While it doesn't scale to your pet (yet) the BM hunter getting off more Steady & Auto Shots will see more from ArP. That's the downside however, it doesn't scale to your pet, when it does, it will make BM most interesting, until then MM is still king by a large margin.
As to the difference between damage done & dps the difference is burst. SV has high burst, LnL procs accounting for alot of this. MM has more steady dps using rapid fire and readiness on every cd is pretty much the only burst MM has. BM has the most steady DPS of the three specs, but unfortunately the lowest DPS.
Edit: The example I just gave goes against what you are experiencing. If possible link some recount numbers.
