Well, I doubt they'd do that. Having worked with Germans, I find it difficult to believe that these numbers would be very easily conned by changing how statistics is done.
I am also quite sure that there are various different unemployment numbers calculated by German statistics officials, but the media may wish to stick something simple, which is probably the one that is also comparable across OECD countries.
