The probability density you talk about leads to a Mulliken population analysis, be it the total or separated for spin-up and spin-down. Like I said, this population analysis is a=20 representation of the charge density, which are (usually) being assigned to atoms. Whether you take the total charge, or the difference between alfa- and beta-populations is to get =93spin-density charges=94 is irrelevant for the concept of how you get from the density to the atomic populations. There are many different ways how to get from a charge density to an atomic population analysis, of which Mulliken is one choice. But these atomic populations (and hence the Mulliken (spin) charges) DO directly give a representation of the charge density; how well it represents it is another issue. That was my (maybe too subtle) point.
