Affiliates want to maximize their returns and since most are paid a percentage per click, we want the highest clicked terms and we push traffic to those terms specifically.

Ok, I was also thinking about this possibility, at least when it comes to 7 Search ( however, I don't think this can be the case with Overture too ).

thanks for your replies
