I've been googling for a definitive answer to this question in the meantime, but it looks like the best anyone has come up with is to test each weapon individually, and analysing captured video or audio afterwards.

I'll do some comprehensive tests for all burst fire weapons as soon as I'm done collecting/compiling data for the projectile-based weapons.

Sybaris' burst is relatively slow, that's probably why it's close to the listed fire rate when interpreted for individual bullets. I still think the fire rate is supposed to be indicative for bursts, but each burst has an additional burst time/delay added to it. The Kraken has a fast burst, and if you try it you'll see that the fire rate is quite a bit better than if you interpreted the number "2.8" as single rounds per second.

Your input is highly appreciated, though. You're the first guy to provide me with numbers from actual ingame tests, so I'll be able to compare them to my own once I get around to test these weapons thoroughly.
