    two possibilties:

    1) clicks come from DP (though it's uinlikely you'd get more than 5 clicks)
    2) somebody else is pasting your code on their sites and clicking on them.

    3) You could have forgot to place channel code in some ad blocks.

    I had the same thing happening, wrote Google. Their response was that the clicks are probably from someone looking at the cached version and clicking on those ads. For some reason they don't get tallied in channels properly, but they do get counted.

    Look at your pages in HTML mode and look for a line in each block of Adsense code that looks like this:

    google_ad_channel="1234567890"; (your code will be different)

    It's easy to skip setting a channel when creating an ad block.
