Looks like you have a light duty NTP server going.   the higher .26 is
likely the result of running "uptime" but the 0.1 number is from NTP
with close to zero clients and whatever else is running.     You never
want the load average to go over 0.5 in steady state usage.   So you
onoy have a factor of five to go.  Good enough for a small office but
not for a public server.
