Hi @afolabia,
you could start using the Splunk Monitoring Console and see what you're ingesting [Settings -- Monitoring Console -- Indexing -- Inputs].

In addition you could also check if the number of sending hosts is always the same: you can use a simple search ( | metasearch index=* | timechart count BY host).

Giuseppe
