Currently when we search site:domain.com on google we get a return of 3.6 million pages indexed, About 3,650,000 results (0.31 seconds). When we search site:domain.com/childdirectory we get 3.8 million pages indexed, About 3,770,000 results (0.60 seconds). How is it possible that the child directory has more pages indexed than the parent? Is each directory's index counted separately?

No google show results based on users adding their webpage indexes because they are using that kind of different algorithm

Using site: is highly unreliable for counting indexed pages. It is often out of date, incorrect and actual serps is limited to sample data only. You should opt to use Google Webmaster Tools for a more accurate index count.
