What the heck with adsense? 74% CTR, obscene clicks.

Hey Guys,

One of my sites is bringing me really wierd adsense numbers. Its a file hosting site and I just recently put ads up. Just look at these wacky numbers:

Friday, July 13, 2007 4,707 3,499 74.34% $0.22 $1.02
Saturday, July 14, 2007 1,320 316 23.94% $1.05 $1.38

On Friday, after seeing 3k clicks on that many impressions, I emailed Adsense, thinking someone is sabotaging or abusing. No response from them so far. But then saturday and today, those high % CTRs are continuing, and of course the pay rate for it is barely anything.

I'm guessing its foreign traffic that just doesn't know what their clicking on, or it could be someone still sabotaging. My traffic is 23.88% US, which is the largest share thus far, next is malasia with 13%, Taiwan 6.73% and a bunch of other countries. Any ideas on what the hecks going on? Is it even possible to get less than 1cent per click?
 
It is possible to get less than 1 penny per click.

Why don't you try something else such as affiliate links?
 
somebody could be sabotaging you.. i'd take the site down until adsense support answers your email... if its legit traffic then follow copper's advice and try something else that pays more... $0.22 RPM is a waste of traffic:)
 
Not really a monetziation issue, just that I'm seeing so many clicks and Google hasn't contacted me yet lol
