Hi, I was wondering how they do this and if there is a way to "cheat" the amount of data you are downloading or seeding.

There's no point in cheating. Any good private tracker will let maintain a sizeable buffer assuming you seed with things like bonus points/free leech.

If it's difficult to maintain a buffer, plan to move to a different tracker that will.

Plus, the big private trackers communicate with one another. Get caught in one, you'll be found out in others.

And a lot of private trackers have some type of points system to fix your ratio if it gets out of whack. They award points for seeding.
