I'm not quite sure what you mean. Simpler methods of cookie stuffing will load the merchant's page. As a matter of proof I remember Thurbs making a post about how someone was burning their bandwidth through cookie stuffing, and that affiliates account was terminated.
Case in point: there are individuals out there who are still attempting to use methods such as this. If the OP intends to do so, then the outcome will, more than likely, be the same as in Thurb's post.
In general, my intention of posting was to dissuade the OP from cookie stuffing. But this is GFY, and of course there's always someone who wants to start a pissing contest, flaunt their self-assumed superiority, or just troll for the hell of it.
At any rate, sponsors DO care about cookie stuffing. It's why they disallow it in their Terms of Service. It's why eBay is suing Shawn Hogan from Digital Point. It's why you can only find good information about it in obscure blackhat forums.
