Question about leaking....

Night 3 last night with the CPAP. I was able to wear it for about 4 hours.
When I looked at the data this morning it said

System Leak = 19.1 ml/h
AHI = 3

Is this bad?

I'm sorry to be a pain, but if someone wouldn't mind helping me interpret the data I would really be thankful.

Looks like a nice, low leak rate to me. Some leak is normal, as I understand it, the necessary exhaust via the ports on your mask. AHI of 5 or less is what we all hope for!

Oh good! I wasn't sure what a normal range for leaking is.

Thanks : )
