Is Christmas coming early
or should I expect a G-email
If you have only been running adsense for a few days then you will see an increase of CTR. However if you are getting in to the double figure CTR then you should look into it.
Write to adsense, if you are concerned. They are very nice and in a way you are preempting a possible problem.
Good luck.
I am actually having a bad day. CTR is half of what it normally is. So I do not know what is going on
On Saturday, CTR settled back down to a more normal 0.5x and EPC was also 0.5y
I've seen some incredible daily spikes and troughs over the past few months.

But our traffic figures do not reflect such massive spikes in our Adsense earnings. Ours vary from $8 a day to $1, yet our traffic does not go up or down by 10 times; it is very stable. Why does this occur?
well I hav enot (yet) received the G_mail, and the weekend crazy ctr is back to usaul levles,
mind you, i am checking my email more than my addsense muney

I wonder when they start adding ads to the adsense stats pages. They most be among the most freqently used pages on the web ;)

The revenue from a single ad may vary from less than 5c to a couple of dollars or more. You're never going to see stability from day to day with such a small sample size as a few dollars a day. Look at your month to month figures and that should be more stable if you've not touched the site. One of my clients gets just over 1000 clicks on a typical day - then you see pretty stable data for the revenue column.
Say you run adsense on various small sites.. then put it on a very high traffic/interest site which suddenly increases ctr etc..
is this liable to throw up flags?
Suzy
is this liable to throw up flags?
One could say that a significant change in impressions or CTR would trigger a flag.
One could also say that the quality control people can track the domains where the code is displayed and that would cancel the red flag.
One could say that the methods for catching fraud are more sophisticated than that or that they are not.
Therefore, the correct answer is "No one really knows except the ones that work at Google"

A high traffic site will bump up the page impressions, as will adding a whole bunch of new content to an existing site, but that would be unlikely to have a massive effect on CTR. My feeling from stats I've seen and heard discussed elsewhere is that, over time, CTRs of 1-3% are quite typical regardless of traffic. If the page content is more interesting, that doesn't necessarily equate to the ads being clicked more frequently.
