Are the ‘steps’ calories counted on MFP relatively accurate?

I’ve had a difficult couple of days with over-eating etc. Today I walked a lot - I would just like to know whether people think the MFP estimate of calories based on steps is relatively accurate? It would be great if it was more or less right, as then I would pretty much have burned off my overspend today!

    I have been trusting them since March and have steadily met weight loss goal of .5 a week. Don't always eat all of the exercise calories, but most of them.
