The StaffTraveler app is much better for checking loads.

Depending on how far out it is, some of those seats might show available, but you also have to keep in mind that the Basic Economy ticket holders get seats assigned. Depending on how close it is to the flight, the number of seats showing might be off. Not 100% sure on that though.
They could have already assigned seats, internally, to the BE folks and what you see on the seat map is legit.
Either way you’ll get a fairly decent idea.

How do they get the loads so accurately?

I’ve had wide open B6 flights only show as amber also.
