If you are the first or first few visitors with these settings then you are considered unique.
You can probably only be unique for a specific website if they would publish a list ordered by most common test results, but event then another website would likely come up with a different result and it is probably futile trying to be not unique.
Regularly clearing cache and cookies and disabling third-party content and resizing the browser window makes these stats anyway not very useful for websites.
A website need to deliver content to a specific IP and that will always make you unique although you can spoof this via a VPN or proxy.

The browser info and screen size is wrong (good) but it is showing the same values every time I visit. So even though not the correct info still enough to fingerprint this browser. I think it should be mixing that data up to make it more random.
</p>The Options -> Privacy & Security setting is blocking some information from being collected.

For example, tests that I have run say that my browser is a "unique" version 68.
I'm on version 71.
