Comment(by elb):

 This is because of the problem addressed by #9692.  You simply have too
 many buddies in your IRC "buddy list".

 IRC has no real notion of a buddy list, so we must periodically poll the
 server for buddy online-ness.  If you have more buddies in your list than
 fit in a single query, the server silently fails to return some results,
 leading us to believe those buddies are offline.
