You sound like you have the view I had before this happened to us (i.e. There must be something this guy did wrong).
When they suspend your account you loose access to all stats, so I can't give you breakdowns for the months, but I can say that we were using AdSense for a year with no issues and then suddently and instantly the account is suspended and that's it. We've still not been told what part of the contract they beleive we breached, or even given a hint as to what we could do to address their concerns, let alone see any proof that we actually did do something wrong. Still, after some complaining we got the payout for 2 of the months and we've moved over to another advertising provider. Al.
