As to aim being overrated.
It is, a bit.
BUT, mind that:
- There're more aim maps than stream maps
- adding hr doesn't change the speed as much
conclusion: there are more ways to train aiming along with getting ranks on scoreboards.
OP: I suggest that you don't care about pp now and just focus on playing. Map difficulty is based on an algorithm, it doesn't take patterns or some other combinations or players' preferences.
And, since it might be useful anyway

Here is the generic reply that should be copy pasted into every thread like this by decree of me, king of G&R:
When you play a map, your rank updates - as such when you play, you see the effects of other people improving while you were away/playing/sleeping. Since you last played, thousands of people have been making new scores and a number of them have gained enough ranks to surpass you! When you play a map your rank is updated and put back into the correct position, this takes a massive strain off of the osu! servers as they don't have to calculate everyone's rank constantly which by extent allows peppy to deliver his impressive service as you see it for free!
To add to that, it is also possible that while you believe your score was improved by using mods or attaining a higher score, your accuracy may have been far lower or you incurred penalties for having more misses. according to the ranking system, your new score is (according to the ranking system) "worse". Replacing an old score with a "worse" score will cause you to lose the difference in pp.
The final way you could lose ranks is that the ranking system is altered in an attempt to be more accurate. When this happens your rank isn't updated until you play like previously mentioned.
I hope this covers everything! If you need more help check out this thread t/181850
