Yeah, I'd say some malicious clicking is going on here considering I only average 2 - 3%.

WOW, that's exactly it then. I was right. Adult advertisers had been hitted by a massive clickbot (probably related to the group which kws live now) and due to the size of the attack and the impossibility to identify each kw but recognizing they all were adult related, Google made the decision to stop all adult ads until resolving the attack. I think they can do it since each account at Google is identified with tags (pharmacy, sport, adult, combinations, etc.)
