    I was just looking at my stats on mybloglog and it says that I had 14 clicks on adsense. I then went into google to look at adsense and it said 0 clicks.

    is something wrong here?

    Yes, most methods to track AdSense clicks are useless. Use Google Analytics if anything.

    Of course, getting your click-results into Analytics is dependent upon a third-party adsense tracking system, which makes it "useless"

    I've seen that...and others...It's still THIRD PARTY, therefore it's not going to be exact (or as you described it: useless) No, it's not really useless, it's quite helpful and much better than nothing if you use the right scripts (I'm using a home-grown script with Analytics myself), but it sure is not going to match Google's Adsense Report 1:1. Mine doesn't...and I'd bet my bottom dollar that Shawn's doesn't, either.
