Has anyone noticed a massive drop in conversions?

I can answer that one in my case. Almost 100% of my traffic is either straight from my link list and the HFS on it or from free sites I've built, and my average conversions (per unique) across the board including all sponsors and traffic sources look like this for the year:

Jan 1:1,004 (the month after Xmas shopping)
Feb 1:965
Mar 1:748
Apr 1:473
May 1:869
Jun 1:841
Fuck I love statsremote

So for me June is distinctly average as well so far, and though I won't claim that these are the type of conversions everyone will see with LL traffic, I be they're somewhere in the ballpark since I get free site traffic from other LLs as well.

My traffic is also down a bit as well, since the last G update fucked me pretty hard and Y picked up most of the slack but not all of it.
