Hi there. We're having an odd discrepancy where our daily click count for the AdPerformanceReport query we're pulling is having a +1 click discrepancy when comparing to other data sources for the same thing. For example, on September 25th, our query returned a daily click value (day has been complete) for 10 @ $21.12 whereas Google Adwords / Supermetrics returns 9 clicks @ $17.72. This only occurs for 1-2 days throughout the month and there is no consistency aside from it occurring between September 20th-September 26th. This has occurred several times and no matter how many times we rebuild our stats for the month we keep getting this discrepancy. Has anyone faced this granular of an issue? Would love to have some help with this! Thank you :)

I would also like to refer to this thread. I'm having an identical issue to this thread as well: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/adwords-api/ygBOBH8ckYM

Correction: It's the Campaign_Performance_Report, not Ad.

Hi Bryan,

Could you please provide me with the full report definition where you are seeing these discrepancies, along with your client customer Id? Just to confirm, does the API report show 10 @ $21.12 and the AdWords UI show 9 clicks @ $17.72?
