ni hao ma is a real Chinese word but has a slightly different meaning: 
1. ni hao ma has a more serious meaning in Chinese than how are you, which is used generally when something goes wrong; has a meaning of "what happened" and "are you ok?"
2. ni hao ma is used in letters and among senior people. for example: long time no see, how are you - 好久不见，你好吗？- Hǎo jiǔ bù jiàn, nǐ hǎo ma?
