    This can happen to everyone. If your first visitor clicks on a bunch of ads you get high CTR :rolleyes:

    could you right click an ad and select open in new window or tab?

    nm I tried it. answer is yes you can.

    so you could open all of the ads that way with 1 impression

    Maybe there's no menu links. Only adsense ads links, so visitor clicking twice at the ads. One page two clicks on the ads. Or the simple word is the impression only half of the click(s).

    I have asked the same question to google via email support and they respond it's possible and could be because of

    1- one person visited your page and clicked 2 ads
    2- one person visited your page cliked one ad than use browsers back button and visits another ad(I am not sure about this one if it's exactly like this or different).

    you have 1 impressions and 2 clicks.

    Someone visited your page, clicked on an ad, then pushed "back" and clicked on a different ad.

    its not that big of deal actually

    It doesnt count as 2 impressions because when he clicks back the page DOES NOT reload.

    Thats what I came to this is the most reasonable explaination (spelling?)

    It also means you could already be flagged and get banned soon...
    Maybe be someone is clicking repeatedly to get you banned!

    Ok, google rep told me that the pageviews data was not updated on time but the clicks did, so that's why. He assured that everything is fine.

    Better report to Google. At least they know you are reliable.
