Are you perhaps leaving your iPad connected to its Power Adapter for extended periods? If so, this is not an issue - but this can alter the iPad battery charging strategy.
Your iPad will suffer no harm in being connected to external power for extended periods - whether in use or not. This usage model is common in Point of Sale (POS) and Kiosk applications. The iPad will optimally charge your iPad battery, modifying its charging strategy, as appropriate, to reduce battery chemical aging.
