How do you know if someone is clicking on your ads? I get half million impressions a day with couple thousands of adsense clicks a day so how do i know if someone is just sitting there clicking on my ads?
And what if a visitor clicks on my adsense lets say 5 times. Would that be considered click fraud? If i got an email today that i had click fraud what could i do to prove google that it wasnt me?

I can't really help you with a definite answer, but maybe running Google Analytics will help. That way Google always has access to your visitor data.

Whether or not something is click fraud is at Google's discretion. The best thing you can do is regularly monitor your traffic, and if you see something like sudden spikes, frequently occuring IPs (or IP blocks), etc., pull your AdSense ads and inform Google.
