Hi PPL, Which method of the TrafficEstimatorService are you using? The estimateKeywordList() method doesn't allow you to enter geo or language targeting information, so this could be affecting the results. If you use the estimateCampaignList() method you can set this targeting information and should be able to get the same results as the web version. If you haven't seen it already, this blog post has some good information on the service: http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2008/07/traffic-estimator-service-explained.html
