Yesterday night (my time) I had 8 clicks (very normal so for) however at 4:50am i got emails from AdLogger for a multiple clicks alert that one ip clicked on 10 Ads and I was ready to report a click fraud. However this morning my yesterday stats are showing only 11 clicks so what do you think?

AdLogger has problem with clicks counting. Seems like it is counting right-clicks. And sometimes left-clicks as multiple (maybe depends on browser).

This means you may never believe AdLogger. I would not track clicks with any third-party program because of this very reason.

Try searching "AdLogger" on webmasterworld. You'll find details.

10 whole clicks?

I'd call in the National Guard and set of the Emergency Broadcasting System, but that's just me.

Relax.

Ok everyone :) you had enough fun on my account :P what can I say I am a poor guy with a max of 11 clicks a day so 10 clicks from 1 ip is not normal for me

But because of your low traffic/clicks it IS normal. Your problem is that natural random behaviour of visitors means that to see any stability in the stats at all you need a lot of traffic clicks daily. Then suddenly your daily figures vary only a few percent. (but much more than 10 clicks!)
