deduplicated
Explanation:
If you deduplicaate or "dedupe" data, you simply remove duplicate occurrences, leaving only unique occurrences.

Turns out there are broadly two types of data deduplication. The first is used to compress data so that it can be stored more easily (see above ref.). The second, which is the relevant one here, is about "cleaning up" data for marketing and/or reporting purposes. Examples:

agree  Charlie Bavington: actually, I would use this in brackets after unique, and drop it as a qualifier for calculation, relative to which it is inaccurate, since it is the result that is de-duped, not the calc itself (if you see what I mean).

  -> eerrhh, yes, thank you Charlie !

agree  rkillings: Seems to me the calculation of uniques IS the elimination of duplicates, by definition.

neutral  Charlie Bavington: literally, quite right, of course. In practical terms, in order to keep the concept in the text (I don't like just leaving stuff out), I would probably adopt the solution as in comment to CC-S.

  -> As you wish, Charlie!

neutral  Kelly Walsh: I couldn't find deduplicate in the www.askoxford.com nor on http://www.websters-online-dictionary.org/ - therefore, I would hesitate to use this word even if a few websites do. My druthers is to avoid bureaucrat speak

  -> Your prerogative. Having worked in the marketing arena, I know that it is a very widely-used term when dealing with data (in the UK at least).
