Jamy, here are your answers:
1. Page Rank is some sort of importance measurement of your site developed by Google. In other words, if your blog has a high rank, Google considers your blog to be important. There are many factors that determine your page rank. One of it is links from other sites. Normally, the more links to your blog, then your blog will have higher page rank.
2. A page view is a request to load a single page of an Internet site.
3. The actual page rank algorithm is a guarded secret. Therefore it is hard to know what are the factors that influence page rank. However, basic search engine optimization will help you to improve your page rank.
As for the last question, AdSense ads are contextual ads. Type of ads that appear on your blog depend on the content. That is why you need to check keyword density. If you blog is filled with keywords like Florida and retirement, then most probably ads related to Florida and retirement will appear.
