Yoda says that the Prophecy may have been mis-read, not that they don’t understand it. This would imply that like all prophecies it is open to interpretation. As to the force not being in balance, this is the way that I see it. The Jedi have a very one sided view of the force, all good intentions and being at one with the living force, go with the flow.. that sort of thing. Chuck in something out of the ordinary like a spot of anger and they don’t feel quite so serene. Imagine if you will a blanket lying neatly on the floor, this represents the force. One side is light and one side is dark’ when the blanket is all light side up and smooth the Jedi see the force as being settled and at peace, you might also say in balance with the universe. However if you take one corner of the blanket an fold it back so there is just a little bit of dark side, the “force” is no longer seen to be in balance. I don’t think that it refers directly to numbers because if you say that you have to discount half of the EU literature and so on. Where do Starkiller and Mara jade fit in to it if the balance referred to is purely numerical.
