hmm sorry I was thinking you were comparing data from your side and adwords data, I missed the point on that :) Are you sure you're looking at the same metrics ? I see on your api request you've requested a creative report, are you looking the creative stats on adwords ? Another clue, is there a problem between month and day, I mean taking report of the 10/06 instead of 06/10 :) because you write 10-06-2008 as start and endDay but it should be written as 2008-10-06
