AL actually had more critic acclaim than both the fan favorites - UMS and GL. HTNGU was a moderate hit in the English speaking world and some Asian countries but as a whole the AL era was a commercial flop WW (sans East Asia and Canada). GL's streams are great since Spotify at that time was only relevant in Sweden, Norway and maybe the other Nordic countries. In Spring 2011 it was available only in a handful of other countries and wasn't nearly as popular there as it was in Sweden (hence why digital sales were strong till late 2013 - early 2014 around the world). Later in 2011 it was released in the US but only started to have significant success in 2013 and onwards. GL didn't sell as her previous albums but it couldn't even since sales went down a lot since her debut. The sales climate is definitely not the only reason why GL sold less than the previous albums since she overall lost in popularity and other factors but it still was one of the reason. The GL tracks were streaming hits at that time, WYWH having that much views on YouTube while not making any significant impact on the commercial charts is astonishing. Of course LG, UMS and TBDT sold more and would have more streams if Spotify was relevant at that time, but this means also that the same albums would have sold less if streaming was available back then. You can't brag about the fact that UMS sold more than her last albums and then state the reason why no one streams it is because Spotify wasn't available and ignore the fact that because of on-demand streaming her last albums sold less because people streamed them instead of buying. It's just not comparable. I think that the reason why LG and TBDT have more streams than UMS is because they had the bigger and more remembered hits. All of the LG main singles have more views and more streams than MHE, the same case with Girlfriend and WYG. You may say that it is one of her better singles but at the end of the day it didn't have the same impact as some of her other singles did. Everytime while discounted Complicated and Girlfriend reach the top 300 on iTunes while MHE often doesn't even reach the top 500. Complicated and Girlfriend are included in a lot of Spotify's playlists (like "00's classics", "00's pop hits", "ultimate pop hits" etc) that's why they gain more streams.

She's obviously not on Rihanna's, Beyoncé's or Katy Perry's level when it comes to Spotify. Artists like Lorde, Drake that made it big this decade but don't have that great sales are also far ahead since Spotify is this generation main music source. Kelly Clarkson and Britney Spears have more streams for their single (both have at least one song with 100M plays there) but compared to Avril's album streams (without the singles) they're actually quite less streams. She's doing okay-ish on Spotify, better than in the past few years. But she really needs the additional push from the upcoming era.

Like greeneyed said: her stats aren't very good, but they're much much better than just a 1/2 year ago.
She deserves better stats in my opinion though.

When she releases new music I'm sure her stats will rise.

It's possible because of her tweets about the VMAs that it made people nostalgic and research Complicated, go "oh yeah I remember this song!" and purchase it.
