Google AdSense not reporting all clicks?

    I'm using AdLogger, and it reports about one click every 10 minutes. But I checked AdSense, and it's been at 2 clicks for the whole day so far. What's going on? :( Does it take AdSense a while to update the # of clicks?

    adsense takes anywhere from 20min to a few hours to update the clicks.. also, Adlogger will show many more false-positives (non-clicks). your numbers will never match..

    I just read that AdLogger sees mouse overs and left clicks as actual clicks.

    Left clicks ARE clicks, but mouse overs? I doubt that, otherwise I'd get a TON more emails.

    there are some days where you will have low CTR and it is often tempting to think not all clicks are being recorded.
