How about using some free graphing service and add some visuals too? Maybe Excel 07?
Visual representation might give a very clear picture very quickly… pie charts anyone?

But thanks for the suggestions.:)

Creating charts would help you in the long run – when a quick glance should tell you all what you need to know

You might want to checkout https://www.google.com/adplanner/planning – seemingly gives more information than needed
I guess you’ll need a dummy adwords account to access it…

Nop, any google account should do…
