If Eve's in-game money doesn't correspond to real money, how is it possible to say "$45,000 worth of in-game cash looted" with any accuracy?

The conversion is most often done through ISK -> PLEX -> 19.95€ on the basis of prices on the in-game markets trading PLEX [1][2]. However, there is no good and legal (?) way of actually converting ISK directly to real money. You can make estimates through the figures for the purpose of creating a sense of scale (especially used in EVE-related articles about battles and corps), but that doesn't mean that it's actually worth $45,000 of withdraw-able cash.
