There are several possible causes, each of which may be contributing.

1) S@H was over granting by 10 to 15 percent. This has been fixed and would cause a drop in your RAC (Recent Average Credit).
2) You get credit when the other computer returns the work and it is validated. Sometimes this can take a while and your RAC drops for a while. In this case your pending credit should be going up.
3) AstroPulse. The credit grant for AstroPulse has not been ironed out yet, and seems to be a bit low.
