Agreed. The problem is that weighing yourself is easy, but measuring body fat is way harder. Most of the at-home measurement tools are wildly inaccurate; the accurate ones are either expensive or inconvenient.
It does seem to be tracking reasonably well - I've lost a bit of fat, but not a significant amount since then. Given what I see in the mirror, I think 16-17% is about right. There are some weird fluctuations, but we're talking 1-2% day to day. The range of the graph is about 4-5%.
The trick is to measure several times a day if you get the chance (or at the very least when you get up and when you go to bed) to smooth out any fluctuations.
