Yesterday was a horrible metrics' day with clicks and CTR down 31%, eCPM down 35% and actual earnings down 32%, EPC normal.
Anyone else or was it just my AdSense server up the creek again?

I was down slightly from the rest of the week, but nothing like that.
There's a maintenance today, so maybe that will shake things up.

Same as HuskyPup - Impressions and EPC normal. CTR hit a new low. eCPM hit a new low. You say "data loss". I say "something else". Crunch time equals meltdown.

up the creek again?
Make sure you bring extra oars ;)
Mine was normal.

Was wondering the same. Had the same problem yesterday. CTR was extremely low with the same traffic.

Oddly enough, I had my best day ever yesterday. Not bragging, just baffled that it went so much better than normal, and normal is usually pretty consistent. I wish I knew why because I would do it that way more often.
I've seen a lot more volatility lately with the performance of both AdWords and AdSense.

This month has seen some funny events for me. Earnings have been back on track and they are as good as January earnings.
However, in alternate days, earnings are 10% lower (meaning the next day there is an 10% increase). Its been a week now and I kind of like the way things are turning out i.e., earnings are consistent! Hope things stay the same.
11th of June was a normal day for me (10% lower income), which means today there will be an added 10% revenue ;)

the low CTR started around mid last week. although today seems a little better, overall its dropped. I think its because of the recent changes at google since the searches are just not that relevant so it would mean less clicks since traffic is really poor and un-targeted in many cases.

Sunday was completely normal for me however it was my best Saturday for quite some time with CTR nearly double average and eCPM 50+%.
Did I get a click dump from Friday? Not in the usual way of one or two massive dumps, the clicks just kept coming steadily all day long and through the night as though several servers just kept finding clicks and steadily feeding them to me.
I've seen this sort of thing happen after about 12 hours or so but never the following day...of course this is assuming that it was missing data and not just a good day.

the low CTR started around mid last week.(7-13 june)
+1, that's what I see on my numbers too. There are two coincidences: #1 the caffeine google change and #2, the beginning of the soccer world cup.
My traffic went down a little bit but the income was cut almost to the 50% and less than that in the middle of last week. It seems to be slowly recovering from that.

Yesterday was an excellent day for me - perhaps my 4th or 5th best ever :) I have a niche site on adsense which has dropped in ECPM over the years, but it has jumped up 20% recently because Google seems to have finally found something the users are interested in - its putting videos on the site (at least thats what I am seeing!) Nice little increase, possibly helped by having moved the hosting on the weekend and it seems much faster. Happy, happy :)

Yep, this is far and away my best May/June evah. Got so excited I whipped up a quick and dirty mobile version of my site last night; gonna give AdSense for Mobile a shot.
