I am attempting to use the DISPLAY_KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT 
and CRITERIA_PERFORMANCE_REPORT to build a dataset showing the cost and 
performance of my search and display adverts. I am using the following AWQL 
in Ruby (through the AdWords gem) to do so:

"SELECT Id, Date, AccountDescriptiveName, AdGroupId, AdGroupName, 
> AdNetworkType1, CampaignName, 
>       ClickType, Criteria, IsNegative, Impressions, Clicks, Cost, 
> AveragePosition, Conversions, QualityScore
>       FROM CRITERIA_PERFORMANCE_REPORT DURING 
> #{start_date.strftime("%Y%m%d")},#{end_date.strftime("%Y%m%d")}"
> "SELECT Id, Date, AdGroupId,AdGroupName, AdNetworkType1, CampaignName, 
> ClickType, IsNegative, 
>       Impressions, Clicks, Cost, Conversions FROM 
> DISPLAY_KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT 
>       DURING 
> #{start_date.strftime("%Y%m%d")},#{end_date.strftime("%Y%m%d")}"


However, when I sum the total costs for a given date with these commands, 
the number I get is higher than the truth. I assume this is something to do 
with DISPLAY_KEYWORD_PERFORMANCE_REPORT being a "multiple attribution" 
report, but I don't see an alternative report to use. What report should I 
be using to achieve an accurate dataset?
