Bots probably seem like they make a bigger part of Twitter's population b/c they will simply tweet more than the median user. I imagine that the majority, and perhaps the vast majority of Twitter users are mostly passive users, ie: they mostly consume tweets and seldom actually tweet themselves. In other words, high D/MAU, ~5% bots, but bot tweet volume makes up 30+% of actual tweet volume.
