Adsense CTR down today (8/9/05)?

    I just checked my earnings for today and see that where my CTR is usually, today it is at 1.2% lower. I IMed a friend of mine with a large site (consistent adsense history) and she is experiencing the same thing, having her CTR about 1% lower than normal. Anyone else see this? You think it will correct itself later today?

    Same issue here. Logged on to see if anyone else was having the same problem.

    CTR and of course earnings are WAY down.

    I believe it is a problem with stats not updating completely, only impressions are showing updates. This causing CTR to look horrible. (?)

    Ditto here, I'm about one-fifth the CTR as usual.

    I think there must be a problem. My stats are really consistent and todays would be so far off I can't believe there isn't something wrong.

    Hopefully once Yahoo is out of beta, Yahoo will always be close to live forcing Google to fix there stats server so they are close to live stats. (Live as in updated every 15 minutes.)
