3 sites cramped into 10gigs of traffic says nothing about the quality. Your site could be burning 100gigs of traffic, and be converting exactly the same.
Same about conversion ratios, they tell nothing without knowledge of the product being sold... you could be converting at 1:20 for $0.25 per free e-mail, or at 1:500 for $150 per genital magnifier extraordinaire.

Now if you told me that you spent $100 on bandwidth/IPs/domains, automated your html creation, and got $1000+ back, then I'll surely be a lot more impressed than knowing your bandwidth usage.

Btw, rhetorical question: if you have access to both 1:5000 traffic and 1:200 then why compromise and only choose one?
