The report is a grand total, but there are news releases when a stake is reorganized, created, or disbanded, listing what wards are created or reassigned, and I think the stake presidency is even named.
And there is a general Church Directory, and various websites like cumorah.com that also list these same changes.
There are roughly a hundred thousand ward and branch clerks who regularly need to communicate with other wards and stakes. It is a sure thing that they would spot inaccuracies in the directory and start asking questions.
