Default Stupid Question - Hold\'em: Do you get AKs less often than AA?

I had always just assumed that AA came less frequently than AKs, but after looking at my PT stats, and having AKs come in 1/2 the time AA did, I checked the math, and was surprised.

AA seems to be drawing to 4(aces) then to 3(aces):
<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>4/52 * 3/51 = ~.0045</pre><hr />
and AKs seems to be:

Drawing to 8(aces and kings) and then 1(matching A or K):
<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>8/52 * 1/51 = ~.0030</pre><hr />

Is this right?
