I can't see anything positive at all from doing this. Either they are using it as a web bug to gather info on your sites visitors or they want a free backlink. Referrer spammers used to do this a while back so I am pretty sure the SE's are wise to 1x1 non spacer gifs that are not part of a URL from an established Affiliate or Stats program.
