i have a specific link for every keywork i have listed with overture. some of my keywords get 1 click a month and the bids are really low (we're usually the only bidder for these, too).

every so often almost every term we have gets a single click. my stats count them, but they don't seem to show up in ov stats. its fine that i'm not paying for them, but it kills my stats/apparent conversions. i go from having a 1:50 day to 1:150. this has happend 4 times in no order, 10/4, 10/15, 10/22, and 10/26 (right now).

does anyone else see anything like this? is it overture or is it a bot of some kind?

Do you happen to have access to your logs? These should give you a good idea as to where those clicks are comming from. Users tend to pass referers, bots do not.
