Yes that's what I've been dealing with. When nothing crazy happens I usually win around 7 games a day out of 30-40. But a lot of these well-known PvPers (ItsAustennn, BiboyQG, CreeperFarts, etc.) really focus on their ratio. I don't think it's really necessary for them to do that because everyone already knows they're a lot better at PvP than a lot of us will ever be.
I get around 10-15 wins (20-25 on a tryhard day) out of 50 or so but there was a stage when I was doing awful getting like 2-3 wins per day out of 50 plus my sister played over 600 games (and lost em all) on this account before she got her own account soo yee...

In my opinion anything better than a 1 in 7 is not too bad considering the amount of teams/hackers/boosters/illegitimate win gainers that play...

In my opinion I think that ratio does show the skill of a player. Mostly, players who are more experienced, have better ratios as winning is like a second nature to them. However, some people don't really care about their ratios, such as TheMCPharaoh. So really you can argue both ways.

PS : My ratio is a 1/2.75 :p

I'm better than my ratio (1/5) pvp wise.

The only reason I even die are teams, or off spawn.

I feel I'm way better than my ratio, my ratio is like a 1/2.8 and I know if there would be no hackers or 4 teams, I would have 1/2 or better, but Obstacles make the game harder and I like that :D

The worse the ratio, the better. The more people underestimate you, the better.

A player's stats mean very little in today's game where everyone resets their stats all the time and has multiple different accounts.

Considering my ratio is a stable 1/1.8, I don't believe that my pvp skills (excluding bow) meet up to those standards. However, as most people have noticed that my K/D ratio is a lot lower than many other higher ranked players, I am a very strategical player. I avoid fights that I know I cannot win and I always make sure that I have a good chest route on any map. I got my ratio by strategy, not pvp skill.

Sometimes I play too aggressively (sword rushing teams, etc.) Some days it pays off and other days it makes me look like an idiot lol. I don't know why I started doing it recently, usually I'm more calculating and careful

The stats don't mean anything, tbh the worst the stats the more the good players underestimate you and that gives you a chance to kill them. Don't underestimate people because of their stats trust me. :)
