The ripple current goes through the rectifier of course, so an ammeter placed there reads the raw rectified current, not filtered at all. Measuring the current downstream simply removes the AC component and isn't a true indicator of the resistor current. (I am assuming the resistor is where it belongs, in series with the diode and not after any filtering.)
