Speaking to AdSense publishers at face-to-face events and in reading emails and forums, we on the AdSense team have seen a phenomenon develop that's probably best described as G.A.S.S. - Google AdSense Stats Syndrome. The primary sign of affliction is the compulsive need to check AdSense stats every 15 minutes or so to see how much you've earned since your prior login. Sufferers face strong withdrawal when separated from a PC with Internet access and have been known to experience mild abdominal discomfort and general irritability.
So for you G.A.S.S. sufferers, we will offer a bit of temporary summer relief this Thursday. For some scheduled maintenance, our reports will not be (visibly) updated for around 6 hours beginning at 12 noon PST (GMT -8 for you international folks). Your earnings will of course be unaffected, but you won't see any change in stats during this time as we work to improve the AdSense system.
Please enjoy the day and rest assured that things will be back to normal as soon as possible.

I definitely have G.A.S.S. but also wondering if there's a maintenance issue or other issue today? Valentines' Day. February 14, 2009.
I have 8 cents in revenue, same thing I had early this morning. And while that is very, very unlikely it could be true I suppose but my impressions have not changed since early this morning either and it's now 4 pm.
I know I've had visitors because I've gotten emails from people who visited the site and because there have been no problems with my server. Also, google analytics shows visitors although that info is way down too.
Any issues not reported yet under Known Issues?
yup today, page impression did not working as usual, its stuck...
wondering what happen to adsense...
did the system crash???
Do these stats include my own logins
i have just started with this and want to know if i am getting impressions and clicks so i just want to know if i am and Yes i am Addicted took only a week but still its better than wasting time in chatrooms.
