The title of the page I linked to is "Websites using Cloudflare in the Top 100k Sites by Traffic" so I think my interpretation was correct.

Also, one domain can use multiple CDNs (eg one subdomain uses Cloudflare while another uses Bunny) so I'm not sure how their percentages work.

I'm also not sure how they count sites that use Cloudflare but not the CDN product (for example, if they disable caching and only use the WAF). That looks identical from a client side so there's probably no way to tell.

Maybe I shouldn't trust their data.

AWS(just 8% seems sus),

The chart wouldn't be showing all of AWS, just Cloudfront (their CDN). There's plenty of services that use AWS EC2 or Lightsail but front it with Cloudflare.
