    hi is a 2.63 percent click through rate decent when using google adsense? or is that on the low end of expectations? This was out of 300 or so uniques ive been able to get in one day.

    It depends. Whats your website?
    I have 3 websites, with clickthrough rates of 5%, 6% and 9% respectively.
    I'm going to try and get them all to 9%
    If you browse through the forums here you'll see lots of tips on improving the clickthrough rate

    your uniques:impressions ratio matters a lot when trying to tell if your CTR is decent.

    if a user views 100 pages on average things will be much different than if they view 2 pages.

    I can't find any ads on your page except the link unit, place an ad unit in the top with 336 x 280 large rectangle ad block, and also make the link units in white while your background is black, so that it shows well comparing to now, also put a 160 x 600 wideskyscraper in the sponsors tab, but remove the word sponsors... definetely it will improve your CTR and earnings.. good luck
