All the economy is showing 0 but how do you know how much it is oversold by? Or do you just make an educated guess that it is oversold.

Thanks!
Educated guess, only internal EK Data Shows oversold data. EK generally will oversells by up to the number of unsold seats in higher cabins, so if J and F have combined 20 available and Y are all 0 it's likely oversold by 10-20. However individual flights all are slightly different based in revenue management's forecasts, if they reliably sell last minute J seats for example they might oversell Y a little less.
