Right. That sounds like you will be providing a lot of value to your site visitors. Great concept for a long-term business. Adsense, well executed, can make for a good business. Treat it as a business and you will be rewarded. Treat it like a retard and you will be ....
There's still a shit load of money in adsense. One rule of thumb in this business is that everything still works....and doesn't.....
The point is it's just not as easy as it used to be. If you want to make money in adsense you need kick ass keyword research and good content - an aged account doesn't hurt either. A good yard stick is to assume that you'll get about 20% of the cpc on keywords with high competition.
There are still plenty of $50 and $100 dollar a click keywords out there but nobody is going to wave them around.
Since most people travel in packs no one still making a killing in adsense is going to yell "HEY GUYS YOU ARE WRONG, THERE'S PLENTY OF MONEY IN ADSENSE LOOK OVER HERE..."
Uh uh, I don't think so....
As someone alluded to, it's all about ROI and being creative....there's adsense for feeds, adsense for videos, adsense for mobile devices and non-english adsense (which is a good 5+ years behind....)

my site is 2 days old and i have around 700 visits on the 2nd day and growing..counting 500-600 uv in 3 days (including a 2 hours of today's stats)
you're using awstats , which really means about 1/4 of the traffic is real visitors
ok wait. are you saying that I cant make 5,743.00 per month by posting links on the Google from my home on my laptop?
....damn.
....damn.
Spread your apples around a few baskets. There's no reason why adsense shouldn't be one of them. Like everything, it varies. This month I'm at a 15.22 eCPM and loving it, but there are plenty of stretches where it falls off.
