The undocumented configuration option 'OverloadStatistics' can be used to disable the reporting of an overloaded state. E.g. place the following in your torrc:

OverloadStatistics 0

May be worth considering until the reporting feature becomes a bit more mature and the issues around DNS resolution become a bit clearer.
