Would it be against the TOS to put a line in there for clicks so long as no numbers are revealed? Dunno about TOS, but a line doesn't tell you very much. I think CTR vs PI might be useful. If its not a line with y=ax and a=0 APPROXIMATELY and you can exclude timeseries influences [aka you fiddling with the ads changing colours etc] you might be able to draw conclusions. CTR vs eCPM should be fairly linear in a regression [use the right fitting curve though ;)] ecpm vs time is interesting. If the regression is showing less wiggels at the end, the G algorithm is working, imo. If it bounces about the algo can't find an optimal fit for your set etc. There is soooo much you can do with that data ...
Should we get some structure to this comparison. Set a certain date range and then compare?
