Default DQ Fudge Bars - help needed

OK...here's the scoop. I've discovered Dairy Queen Fudge bars. They're no sugar added, sweetened with sorbitol and aspartame. Nutritional info is as follows:
55 cals
4.2 g protein
.2 g fat (give me more fat!)
13 g carbs
3.2 g sugars
2.4 g sorbitol
5.5 g polydextrose
80 mg aspartame

So my questions are as follows:

What is polydextrose? Does it count?

When I put the numbers in fitday it didn't add up so I subtracted some carbs and recalculated and it came up with 9 grams carbs. Is this correct?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I've only had 2 in the last 81 days which I think is pretty good for a gal who could put away a pint or two of ben and jerry's in a single day in my previous life.
