I would not worry one bit, there are several times when I get higher CTR than that.

For this month, this is normal range.

When I check my what people searched,
I see also most time strange queries.

Seems the normal queries come only 1 time and are so not listed.

CTR for search is normally very high compared to the ads. Our CTR is a bit more than your high figure since we started. Visitors don't realize that the top results on the SERP are ads and are often in a hurry to find something relative to their search term. This is probably why revenues for search are much lower.
