I don't know of any other attack or request that amplifies outbound traffic via tor or otherwise, but there may be some.
I did experienced too a gap of incoming versus outgoing of about 30% and more few times in the past at an exit relay, having an advertised bandwidth of 8 MB/sec. That gap persists over a day or so and then vanished.
A day is the HSDir rotation period, perhaps there is a popular hidden service which serves 8-30MB/s worth of descriptors.
