This is true but not to the tune of 1:20. I get antsy if I see over 1:6-10 on some programs. The main program I push that gives out stats like this typically does 1:4-7.

With numbers like 1:20, I see the following culprit's:
1) Your traffic is crap. You'll see numbers like this if you have a sudden wave of Indian traffic, or similar countries that have difficulty billing.
2) Sponsor is doing something very wrong. Either with tracking or processing. I would ask them what kind of numbers they are seeing across-the-board and also with affiliates that have traffic similar to yours.
