"A few clicks away" doesn't just refer to two websites. It is a way of saying it is easy to find the information.

According to this website, "klicks" was being used by US soldiers in Vietnam and probably earlier, to mean "kilometers".
Remember - if you don't use correct capitalisation, punctuation and spacing, anything you write will be incorrect.
