Hi Tommy, Greg,
  This is partially correct.  You can obtain the figures for the Other 
Domains (as listed in the UI) by running a Criteria Report for all Criteria 
types that can trigger automatic placements (such as keywords, verticals, 
etc), take the totals from that report and subtract the sum of all rows 
returned by the Automatic Placements report to get the Other Domains 
figure.  If you only use Keywords as criteria, then the Content keyword as 
mentioned by Greg will work in place of the Criteria report I mentioned. 
 (this is the method the UI uses to display this information - note that 
this is only useful to explain where 100% of impressions came from, as no 
cost nor clicks will be attributed here).
