From what I know about selling traffic, the seller figures what he/she can make on the traffic if he/she used it for their own purposes. Then they add at least 10% and sell it to you. This means you have to be at least 10% more effective that they would have been or you loose money.

Just my 2 cents.

It would depend though, perhaps the site selling and the site buying have two different objectives. I wouldn't have said it would be as clear cut as needing to be as efficient as the overheads they put on.

To one person 1000 uniques could mean one sale, to another it could mean 3 email addresses, to another it could mean a forum poster and so on.
