The only way to give you statistics is to give you revenue information, which is (obviously) confidential. However, with a basic understanding of how ads work, you can know that the fact that the site is operational means that ads are serving their intended purpose. If ads weren't working, there wouldn't be a site here. I can't make it any clearer than that! :)
