Point is firstly, Forbes list is estimation.
Secondly, YouTubers earning doesn't only come from views ad money of YouTube, which is actually peanuts, given you earn only small amount like 1-5 dollars per 1000 views depending on which region you are from, meaning even a million views will give you only 5000 maximum.
It is the sponsors, ads(non YouTube) and other stuff like merchandise, public meetings and others which play a key. Even in males, some people have more views but earn less, so what kind of excuses will be made by people, like oh gora hai ishiliye ziyada views, kaala hai ishiliye Kam views.
