It kinda makes sense to me. By being able to see if the affiliate has a legit site and already got paid by other programs the affiliate is less likely to be a fraudster.
I think with so many affiliates joining PPS programs planning to scam the program with stolen cards, prepaid cards (that wont rebill) and chat traffic, it makes sense for an affiliate program to ask for some references regarding stats/referrers/payouts.
I think more and more programs will start asking for this. If you look at how many programs closed their doors or completely stopped paying lately it only makes more sense that the affiliate programs that are still around are trying to protect themselves for any possible fraud as much as they can.
