It happens all the time. myLot is always recalculating things and sometimes a discussion will get deleted here and there, so our numbers will go down a few points.
Nothing to be worried about, just keep posting!

Yes, our earnings get adjusted here and there too, but again, it's not a big deal.
I have a spreadsheet that I keep track of all my posts and earnings for the entire month, and sometimes my earnings from a day or two before will go up or down by a penny or two.

The first time you respond to a discussion, you will increase one point. If you post more responses to that same discussion, you won't get another point.

Sometimes I have noticed mylot recalculates our earnings days later when posts have been deleted. So they may have deleted a post you replied to today, but not recalculate the earnings until next week.
Also a reason for a post to be deleted is, it was a great post and had no visual sign of going against the guidelines, but it was either a repeat post of the authors or belonging to someone else. These are the one that get me all the dang time, and it's kind of hard to avoid that, unless you search the discussions and be sure there isn't another one just like it, but can do that every time before replying?
Repeat discussions happens a lot here, but if it gets reported, then mylot will delete them.
