Whoa, I got my second star back... I'm only doing between 1.4k and 1.5k ppd. I thought the second star was 2k?
WCG site issues with servers, different projects lagging, and even weekends can all cause the ppd to move around a bit.

FYI on the stars:

Courtesy of an earlier post by CP:

Based on a 7 day average:

badge + 1 star - 500
badge + 2 stars - 2,000
badge + 3 stars - 4,500
badge + 4 stars - 8,000
badge + 5 stars - 12,000 or greater
