Mike,

you could compare the measurements with the profile output of the same 
Cmyk colours. This is possible in ICC Examin with feeding the profile + 
the ti3 files at once. You should then be able to select from the 
main window "View"->"Quality Report".

But the relyability is a bit reduced as these values where formerly used 
for profiling. A clever profiler may try to optimise for just the 
measurements and pays bad for other colour areas. So take such 
comparision with a grain of salt.

Better is to test with a extra set of measurements not used for profiling 
and compare how these play. ICC Examin, and similiar tool, will report much 
more relyable then.
