Hello Reed,

 In general, Placement Performance reports for the previous day won't
have most/all of the data populated for them until after 3pm Pacific
Time on the following day. This is a longer delay than for normal
reports, and is described in this Help Center article:

  http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=71962

I'm seeing the same empty report for March 22 behavior right now with
reports scheduled via the AdWords web interface--are you sure you're
requesting a Placement Performance report with the same date range
when you tested in the web interface?

 If you're still not seeing any data for March 22 after 3pm Pacific
Time today, first double-check the web interface using the same date
range and report type. If you can confirm a discrepancy, let me know
what the report ids are for the report scheduled from the API and the
report scheduled via the web interface (you can get the report id from
the URL of the report in the web interface).

Cheers,
-Jeff Posnick, AdWords API Team
