Just checked two of my characters on wowhead. It seems wowhead is using
data from before the big patch. WAY before the patch. My level 85 priest
is showing up as a level 80, achievements show nearly 1000 points to
low. All her gear shown is the old purple PvP gear. Two of her newest
titles are missing. Wowhead's profiler seems pretty worthless.

Resync the character, easy enough - they've made the button harder to
find now but it's in a dropdown menu under "Manage Character" button,
top right corner of the profile.

Do I have to download the Wowhead Client to make this work? Last time I
did that, a couple of years ago, that client was hogging bandwidth and I
deleted it. I'm not likely to run that again but I had poor internet
access then.

Well, you do if you want the latest info, rather that whatever Armory
is showing; since it resyncs from armory if you don't use the
profiler. At which point I see nothing it offers over the Armory
itself (I don't use the profiler myself any more and as a result,
don't use wowhead's profiles often)

It offers the find an upgrade feature that the armory used to have.

It's a bit better too as you can filter the results to exclude items
that the default search returns (for example, I add hit rating = 0 and
resilience = 0 as filters for my priest)

Of course, this just saves a bit of typing because you can find this
info out without synchronising with wowhead.

Yeah I tend to just search manually for items I want to upgrade anyway
:-) I prefer the armory's layout for character presentation now I
think; wowhead used to be great but now armory has more info it's much
improved I think, I especially like the reforging details on armory,
nice bit of info on what I've done!
