There's a big difference between being a paysite owner and being a successful paysite owner. There are many costs involved that are unknown until you actually go about doing it, and the resolve necessary to follow through and take care of all responsibilities is not for everyone. Generally, unless all of your traffic is generated inhouse and converting at least the same or better as a good sponsor, having a site or program will not be worth it. I would speculate there are a few that have a difficult time running their program in the black.
But each program has a business plans in ways to monetize traffic. Some the most profitable programs send most of their affiliate traffic outwards to more profitable/better converting ventures. This is more an option for older programs.
But I can understand wanting to know the real answer to the question of what your traffic is really worth, and knowing what goes on at the sponsor end of the business.
