Davin Potts <python at discontinuity.net> added the comment:
Without necessarily defining what each means, perhaps it is sufficient to change this clause in the docs:
it should be the mean of data
For pvariance() it could read as:
it should be the *population* mean of data
And for variance() it could read as:
it should be the *sample* mean of data
