You are missing my point.
You do not need 10,000 clicks if they do not do shit.

I will send to anything 1 in 100, the amount of traffic is irrelevant if it does not convert.
Join Page clicks do. If you get 10,000 Unique join page hits and nothing you are fucked.
It's easy to get big numbers in traffic but none of it matters.
The only matter is sales.
Whether its 1 in 100 or 1 in 10,000 is completely irrelevant and everyone knows there is a lot of shit traffic not willing to buy a damn thing. So that is useless stuff in my book.
Lets say I work for a lousy 1000 uniques a day to a site. Even 50 of them go and 1 join I made more money with less effort.
Shit traffic is shit traffic. I know I got shit traffic when my target traffic ratios reach over 1 in 1000 or more or I know something is wrong with the sponsor.
A: Something fucked with the sponsor
B: My traffic is shit.
My procedure is to shit on the site in those cases when I know it has attracted shit for nothing traffic. My method is about quality target traffic to more easily understand a sponsor I am sending to. If I get even with sponsor A: 200 join page hits and no sign ups... and then sponsor B does 1 in 50. Something is amiss. Fuck right off. Links pulled or if maybe I think its a fluke I will extend it. Most webmasters are lead to believe that programs are honest.
My experience says otherwise in a big way.
