It has always been a bit tricky getting Xymon's svchost.cgi tool to 
figure out how many graph links it should include on the status page, 
simply because svchost doesn't know about how graphs map to RRD files 
(that knowledge lies in showgraph).

The best thing You can do is to include the line

   <!-- linecount=N -->

in the status-message that your custom check sends to Xymon, with "N" 
being the correct number of graphs. That overrides the (flawed) 
heuristic that is currently being used.
