the raw ADS-B data is pressure altitude

Confirmed, an encoding altimeter signal to the transponder is referenced to 1013.2, a controllers radar scope will apply the relevant QNH if the aircraft is below transition altitude, a web search will easily explain

Agreed, I was thinking what would appear on an ATC screen with the appropriate conversion applied not what the raw data put on a website would show.
