I'd suggest that opposed to being leery of it, you embrace it so that when you're done, you can say "look, this matches ACTUAL data within 2% - there's nothing better than this out there".

If you're worried about the difference in lag between you and me, it's probably best to have a bunch of people run the same test, aggregate the data, aggregate the pings, and back into a good number of "ping affects dps of class ____ by ____ %", it's the user's job to accomodate for this in their own runs.
