I'm currently trying to use python with the adwords API to generate
daily reports for my adwords account. While testing in the sandbox, I
noticed that I was getting the same column headers every single time
(<column name="campaign"></column><column name="adgroup"></
column><column name="agStatus"></column><column name="imps"></
column><column name="clicks"></column><column name="ctr"></
column><column name="cpc"></column><column name="cost"></
column><column name="pos"></column>) regardless of what I chose as
selectedReportType and the columns I selected. I noticed that this set
of headers corresponds to the default columns in selectedReportType =
adGroup by looking at reporting on the adwords GUI. I then tried using
the sample python code at 
http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/ReportService.html
and am still getting only these columns, even when I modify the code
to produce an adGroup report with different columns selected. When I
look at the generated xml, it appears that my request is being sent in
the correct form: a sample of this output is (when I use the original
code snippet at the site above):

<v1 xsi:type="impl:DefinedReportJob" xmlns:impl="https://
adwords.google.com/api/adwords/v13">
  <selectedReportType>Keyword</selectedReportType>
  <name>Sample Keyword Report</name>
  <aggregationTypes>Summary</aggregationTypes>
  <adWordsType>SearchOnly</adWordsType>
  <keywordType>Broad</keywordType>
  <startDay>2009-01-01</startDay>
  <endDay>2009-01-31</endDay>
  <selectedColumns>Campaign</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>AdGroup</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>Keyword</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>KeywordStatus</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>KeywordMinCPC</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>KeywordDestUrlDisplay</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>Impressions</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>Clicks</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>CTR</selectedColumns>
  <selectedColumns>AveragePosition</selectedColumns></v1>
</validateReportJob>

Does anyone have any idea what is going on???
