My point is all those people that send traffic thru a ccbill aff link etc does it do nothing for the site the traffic is going to?

After enough links (what constitutes enough, i don't know), Google will see it. What google wants to avoid is infinite link possibilities. So if you get a link from a really high authority site (ie: cnn.com) Google will finally follow the link or spider the affiliate link. Alternatively, tons of links to the same affiliate link from different sources.
A hard link can be as little as a pr0 link to get Google's attention. An affiliate link which is duplicate content and an ugly form (ie: domain.com/?wmlogin=XXX) will take a lot of attention before Google finally indexes them. Google will probably follow it but disregard the hundreds of affiliate backlinks as seperate links due to duplicate content.
In short, don't count on your affiliate network to build your backlinks ;)
