For any version of uucico I've seen, the byte count is just the useful data transferred, not including the data packets. Also, since the elapsed time is given only to whole seconds, it was probably obtained from the times() system call, so it's only accurate to +- 1 second. So the throughput is between 18617/172 = 108.2 and 18617/170 = 109.5 cps. That's maximum throughput, for all practical purposes.
