    How is this possible? Ive checked and my pub id is correct in all ads.
    PS. Posted the other thread in the wrong forum, can a mod delete? (are there mods her?)

    Its perhaps that people are leaving before an impression can be registered or somthing wrong with the code.

    Maybe someone's hotlinking your images?

    Hotlinking could be one issue... or perhaps you are hosting an image that you use on another forum... like an avatar?

    May be some of this:
    1. As said before, someone is hotlinking images from your site
    2. Internet bots
    3. Surfers with javascript disabled

    From the similar thread on WMW (http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum89/10225.htm) :
    A hotlinked image in awstats is counted as a page view.

    "Surfers with javascript disabled" seems to be a good reason.

    someone might be using text based browsers

    Alll the traffic is from myspace, and i doubt that many are tech savvy enough to disable stuff/change browser. Here are the stats if that helps profileisland.com/awstats/

    Many people have figured out how to block google ads, such as my workplace - all google adsense frames are white with "restricted" in red. They have thrown pagead2.googlesyndication.com on the restricted list so ads are banned sites.. clever, but many places such as schools / work etc do it.. to stop people cheating adsense by clicking their ads via the work /school proxies.

    That is a possability, both that and the image hotlinking is what i'd suggest :)

    Your file http://www.profileisland.com/graphics/cursors/disney/1.ani hotlinked from someone's myspace profile (http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm) and gets most of the traffic. AWStats counts every profile view as your visitor..

    Try an other stats, Google Analytics for example.
