"Seats in Use" is defined as number of unique machine-ids from which Poser has validated the license in the last 7 days.  So machines don't get deauthorized, they age out of the window for consideration.

Hm, that's interesting. If I understand you correctly, an authorized machine will be forgotten after a period of time? I was under the impression that everytime Poser is getting started, it sends a handshake request to the license server to validate the installation on the current machine. If this is not the case, I only have to wait for the machine id to get expired before I can install and use Poser on other hardware or on a fresh installed Windows? That would explain why I was having this issue. I have reinstalled my OS on the same hardware several times in the last two months and each install had caused a new machine id, right?
