No use of these member counts for any business because I too notice nowadays in my account some new groups are added. As soon as I see those new groups on my list first thing I will do is report as a SPAM. If I'm not wrong most of the people does the same thing so your group tagged as spam group.
Also, if you buy a paid members then no use for your business. It is based on my experience.
