Frequently across all the networks I work with I will see my stats change in ways that don't make sense

I've seen it with almost everyone I've promoted. Chaturbate, hubtraffic, exoclick, tubecorporate, everyone

What I'll see is that, the number of clicks and/or impressions they're crediting me for will change drastically in the timespan of a day or two, while my google analytics and other revenue sources don't change

On exoclick I've noticed that my impressions per day will change dramatically, while my clicks per day and revenue stays the same. So it doesn't seem like they're skimming or cheating, it just seems like they changed how they compute stats

Right now on chaturbate I'm being credited with like 30% more unique hits than I used to have. My traffic hasn't changed and signups haven't increased. They're just telling me I'm sending them more raw clicks than I used to. But I have no data on my end that would corroborate this.

Do any of you experience this? Do you have any insights why it happens?
