Hi Martin,

AdWords API doesn't provide a way to detect if an account has stats 
beforehand, so there's no way to avoid downloading the file. However, you 
could save the trouble of saving the report to file and then loading it. 
See 
https://github.com/googleads/googleads-python-lib/blob/master/adspygoogle/adwords/ReportDownloader.py
 
for details. If you pass fileObj as None, then you get the report text 
itself as a string.

Cheers,
Anash P. Oommen,
AdWords API Advisor.
