I think the light may be dawning - is it the case that whichever axis is vertical will always show a background value in the region of 16000 which is the acceleration due to gravity? I was assuming that the values are instantaneous acceleration as in change in velocity rather than "static" acceleration which shows gravity... In my tests, I had the Puck laying flat on the table and jogged it slightly sideways - I expected the Z acceleration to be zero, not 16000. I've now just tried standing it up on one side and jogging it slightly - and I'm seeing an X or Y axis acceleration of about 16000.
