    There is not an optimal CTR. Is good if you don't cheat.

    Double figures is good, but I would point out adsense TOS's do not allow you to discuss your CTR ratio. Undoubtedly though others will ignore this and post theirs here as well...

    The CTR should be between 0.5% and 10%, yours 13% is a little bit higher, try to reduce the number of ad units per page.

    No, 13 is fine. You don't need to reduce your CTR!!!
    There is no optimum CTR for adsense, what you have to look for is if the user experience is ruined by your ad placement or not.
    I could get 50% CTR if I put 3 336x280 blocks one above the other at the top of my page and pushing the real content way below the page fold. But then adsense would ban me sooner or later.
    But if your ad placement is fine, then fine..
