Is anyone else seeing a low number of page impressions? Yesterday earnings look average but page impressions were down 30%. All other stats showing an "average" number of visitors. Same thing today. (Yes, eCPM is also much higher...).

may be your adsence code is near the bottom of the page, and doesn't load completly?

Could be the reporting bug that G apparently fixed sometime in August. They had a bug where the number of page impressions reported under certain circumstances was equal to the number of Ad units on a page rather than the actual number of page impressions. So a page with 100 impressions and 3 ad units was reporting as 300 impressions. It may have had some connection with the use of ad_region as well, but not confirmed as yet. This did not clear up historical data, only ongoing. Compare the current reported page impressions for a day to your actual access logs and see how they compare. Do the same for a day back in July and compare.

I had noticed this. I often check my stats and look at the number of visits each day. As each of my pages has adsense on it I would expect the number too match however this rarley seems to be the case.
