Like I said, it probably isn't possible.  But wouldn't it be nice if it were? |
All a sponsor needs to do is record (and display for us affiliates) surfer IP addy. From there, you can backtrack.
1. Keep track of referer URL, timestamp, IP when a surfer hits a free site page using PHP (that way HTML stays sqeaky clean).
3. Sponsor records the IP when a sale is made.
Add 2 and 2 together and its pretty easy to figure out where a surfer came from.
