    What makes you think that?. All visitors from referral sites are counted, and their clicks honoured.

    AdSense does not have a mind of it's own. :)
    Any clicks from any visitor and from any source counts equally.

    If you asked your friends on facebook to go to your site and click on your ads, then that is why they aren't being counted: they are invalid clicks.

    If you want to keep your account safe, you should not know who the visitors are who have clicked your ads. If people are clicking ads and telling you about it, they likely exhibited an unusual clicking/link visiting pattern and were caught by Google. You should tell your friends and family not to click your ads because they can cause you to lose your Adsense account.

    Adsense pay for click. So basically it isn't important how arrive a visitor on your website. However, if someone come without refer and goes directly into a google ads might not be counted by google adsense (or the click value will be very low). when someone come from Google, searching for a specific kw, his click might be more valuable because he is targeted.

    StatCounter does not count the clicks on ads the same way that Adsense does. I believe Adsense doesn't count clicks when people immediately go back to your site or close the window after clicking, for example. Often there can be a discrepancy between the two, particularly if you aren't getting very many clicks (and 15 is not very many).

    Your visitors from Facebook are almost certainly your friends (or "friends") and some of them may think they are helping you out by clicking. If I were you, I'd take the links to your site off of Facebook and focus on getting search engine traffic.

    They might have filtered your clicks because they might have been considered as fraud clicks.
