As I’m viewing my AdSense account, there have been some serious influxes in the earnings. When I had $8 for one day, it now shows that day for $16 and the impressions nearly doubled that for day. When I had a lower amount of impressions overall monthly, that nearly doubled and shows almost 500,000 impressions now for the month. I’m not sure what is going on with AdSense right now, but I emailed AdSense support and should have an update shortly on this influx in the AdSense control panel for accounts.
UPDATE: All the stats restablized to the old stats and they are showing the old data. I’m still waiting to hear back from AdSense support.
UPDATE #2 - 3:15pm: Follow-up email…
Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for writing in. I’ll be happy to help clarify why you’re seeing this discrepancy.
When you’re viewing channel reports, the data for all your URL and custom channels may show a larger number of page impressions, clicks and earnings than the aggregate data for the same date range. This is because some impressions and clicks may be tracked on both a URL and a custom channel or on multiple URL channels. For example, impressions and clicks on a URL channel for domain.com/site would also be tracked on a URL channel for domain.com.
To view the most accurate overall performance of your account, visit your ‘Advanced Reports’ page, select the ‘Aggregate Data’ radio button, and click ‘Display Report.’ This will include all clicks, page impressions and earnings from your account with no duplication of data.
Keep in mind, however, that while the Advanced Reports page shows data for AdSense for content and AdSense for search separately, the Overview page shows the combined total of both products, so the totals on your Advanced Reports page may differ from those on the Overview page.
For additional questions, we encourage you to visit the AdSense Help Center (http://www.google.com/adsense_help), our complete resource center for all AdSense topics. Alternatively, feel free to post your question on the forum just for AdSense publishers: the AdSense Help Group (http://groups.google.com/group/adsense-help).
Sincerely,
Evan

Looks like it was just a regular form letter and the really didn’t know what was going on. It seems my earnings have stablized though and everything seems to be just fine…I’m not sure what the inflation was this morning. Did anyone else have this experience?
LAST UPDATE: Well, turns out I’m just a moron :blink: because in the end, I was aggregating the wrong data together and using custom channels AND site channels together — so it was displaying a whole lot more than it should have. Sorry for the mess here…I’ll just be on my way now :P
