    Hmm I'm a bit confused should not 1 pageview = 1 impression?

    My pageviews are 10,000 according to Urchin and Impressions are 2,000 according to google. I have adsense on all my pages.

    Same for my other site... its similar and its running yahoo.

    My guess is many people use adblock to keep the ads from showing.

    Could it be that your are using SSIs on your pages? I think some stat programs count each include as it's own file. So if you have about 5 includes then that would make sense as to why you are getting 10,000 in your stats, but only 2000 in google (which is javascript -- client side) and therefore doesn't count includes as seperate pages.

    I could be completely wrong though ;)

    I suppose tony's explanation is the most logical. Thanks toni
