The metric is "partition count per broker". You didn't mention how
many brokers and how many replicas you have for each topic, but if you
have 1 replica and 2 brokers, then this looks reasonable. Probably 35
partitions on one broker and 33 on the other or something similar. I'd
recommend getting at least 3 brokers and having at least 3 replicas on
each topic though - for availability.
