Hi,
Can you please make sure you are requesting the exactly same dateRange,
predicates and fields for the UI and API again?
If there is still a difference, please share the request and response soap
xml logs and the stats from the UI.
FYI: I recommend to use AdHoc reports to retrieve stats, it take less time
for the stats to be fixed and it can be filtered/segmented in a more
flexible way.
Best,
- Takeshi, AdWords API Team
