It seems to me that many users are complaining about the Left AF issue on the D800 series. But then again only people with real issues seem to be active on the internet - making it a bit hard to jump to conclusions. I am fully aware of the problem but I thought maybe instead of all the whining it might be fun to hear, "my D800 is allright" (there should be plenty plenty) and whenever someone complains about Nikon (real problem or not), there's always this thread for some perspective.

So drop a line, a "+1" or whatever if your D800 AF is 100%.

The Sendai plant of Nikon has been producing at the rate of about 30,000 D800/D800E bodies since over a year ago (click here for the CNET story).

Even if you consider just 12 months of production (in reality, it would be longer as Nikon typically starts manufacturing bodies well before its actual launch), that would make it about 3.6 million bodies by now.

"Just do the math", as you said. 30,000 x 12 = 360,000 which is 10 times less than 3.6 million bodies you found.
