How do you keep your outsourced labor honest and productive?

I've had shitty luck with outsourced labor. If they aren't in my office, I seem to get crappy production.

I would love to hire a guy I just found, but he's not local and there's no way I can get him to move.

The majority of the work is research, with no real way to track how much work he is doing. One job might take 12 hours, and the next might take 2. Or maybe he'll say it took 12 when it took 2, because there's no way I would know any better!
