I'm guessing "Hello" suffered the Complete My Album effect, so its' actual sales won't show on Hot Digital Songs, but they will still count for the Hot 100.

We all pretty much agree here based on last weeks Hot 100 and some strange positions for Bieber and 1D tracks that Billboard changed the rule again and doesn't count them for the Hot 100 anymore.
According to Nielsen Music, “Sorry” drove 178,047 paid US downloads during the November 20-26 tracking week. The tally earns Bieber’s single the #1 spot on the weekly Billboard/Nielsen Digital Songs chart.
Adele’s “Hello” technically generated more paid downloads during the tracking week, but its official sales total received a negative adjustment due to the “complete my album” effect.
When calculating points for the Hot 100, Billboard will nonetheless use the unadjusted weekly download total. “Hello,” therefore, should still reign over that all-encompassing chart.
