Hi Margaret, I'm not aware of an reasons why the results should be different, and in general they should be the same. The results from the v201008 reports should match the AdWords web interface exactly, as they are generated from the same source.
Have you tried comparing reports for data that is older than a day? Small corrections in clicks and other figures may take place for a few days afterwards.
