Double Adsense Clicks

How often do you guys get two adsense clicks coming from the same person? I've been checking my analytics account a lot and I've noticed that I'm getting these kind of clicks often. I worried that my Adsense account will be in jeopardy for invalid clicks.

Also, I started a thread on this already but I'm also getting clicks from direct traffic unique visitors. How is this even possible? It's not like my site is a popular one.

EDIT: So how often do you get a double click from a visitor? I would say about 50% of the time a visitor clicks my ads, they click it twice.

    I think this happens because a lot of people still "double click" on links like we all used to do back in the early days.

    I imagine Google is well aware of this, most of the time you just won't get credit for the double click.

      Good to hear, hope you're right.

      So you can set a limit to how many clicks you can get from a certain IP address? Sounds like a really strange feature for Google to implement. And yes, I am afraid of malicious clicks. I'm getting more and more of these direct traffic & unique visitors clicking on my ads.

      So has anyone had direct traffic & unique visitors come to their sites before? When using Google Analytics, what is considered direct traffic? When people type in your URL in the their browser or is there another direct traffic method?

    having same thought with 36burrows. But is there a way to notify google for suspicious clicks or etc so that could bail us when there's any ban made or etc?

      Yeah I'm wondering this too. I'm one of those people who can't believe things if they're too good and an increase in my earnings and an increase in the number of double clicks I'm getting just doesn't sit right.
