Daily earnings amount shrunk mid-day

Anyone ener seen this happen?

I checked my stats earlier this morning, and the daily earnings were about a buck. I average about a dollar a day, although I occasionally have $4+ days and sometimes really bad ones of less than 50 cents, so this didn't strike me as odd. However, I just logged back in a few minutes ago and the daily earnings had dropped to slightly over a quarter - four of the previously tallied clicks are now showing $0.00 earnings in their channel.

Before anyone mentions it, no I don't click my own ads. Anyone ever seen their earnings mysteriously shrink during the day? I've never run across this before, and I've been in the program since February. It's frustrating.

Check your stat at the end of the day. As you know, adsense stat is not real tiime, it could be due to the delay of reporting.

Huh, now there's been an update, and the money is not only back but more has accumulated through three more clicks unless those three most recent clicks were way overvalued. Guess I was upset over nothing. It was just weird seeing the earnings amount go down during the day.
