First I am not seeing a column bloat_pct in the query you linked to, so
are you sure that is the actual query you used?

of bloat. This is a historical table, and VACUUM VERBOSE shows that
there's nothing to free up.
Is this something that I must live with, or am I misinterpreting the query?
Honestly I have not worked my way in depth through the query you show,
though I did notice it uses pg_stats. What happens if run ANALYZE
(https://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/sql-analyze.html) to update
the stats?
I did ANALYZE VERBOSE on the underlying table. No change.
