When they collide they have a near miss... (*George Carlin Voice ON*: "Booooommm! Look! They nearly missed!" *George Carlin Voice OFF*)... 
Not colliding is a near hit!
Not colliding is a near hit!
Excellent.
Can u do any more impressions!!!!
Near Miss works for me. They missed but it was very close.

Thats how I would see it. As in they missed, but it was close, as in near, therefor 'near miss'.
But if you miss, you had the intention to NOT miss, to hit, so you missed.
Anyways.
I never thought about such things... but then I saw George Carlin...
The pre-heated oven... Another such impossible thing... An oven can only be heated or unheated...
