Sharepoint 2010 Auditing

I have auditing enabled for one of my collections and it is working and can generate and view report on-demand without issue. From my understanding all auditing events are stored int he dbo.Auditdata table for the corresponding DB. When I generate the report in the GUI is show all current data yet, when I look at the table for the correct content DB it shows data that is not current? Do the audit report pull information from other ares as well. Second I have trimming set to 7 days but from what I have ready the Audit trimming job only runs once a month. With this being said what it the point of having trimming set at 7 days if the job only runs monthly?

Thanks for the reply.... So if I do not want to loose any data, if the job runs once a month by default, I should really increase my trim to ~30 days then? Then again how can I tell how much space the audit is taking up in the DB?
Sorry, I have never determined how to determine how much space an audit was taking up in the database as database storage has never been a big worry (luckily and knock on wood.) Increasing your trim or running your audit more often may meet your needs.

Good luck...
