Oozing mosquito bite, is this a problem? clear, and sticky.

Doubtful: I suspect you scratched the bite (maybe in your sleep) and have serum oozing out. You could have a minor staph infection. Wash it with warm soapy water, apply antibiotic ointment and a bandaid and watch it closely for increasing redness, red streaks and increasing pain. If those things happen you may need an antibiotic.
