Every time you do a search, the search engine goes out and re-loads all of those pages and turns them into the pretty images you see. They don't load from their cache, the actually connect to your server and pull the page again, for each and every search. Those pages are not really viewable, the ads are not clickable, and if the user clicks to see the page, the page will be reloaded again.
So if you are popular on a search like "porn", you could end up serving thousands of phantom pages per day, with no actual users. So where you may see stats that show plenty of traffic from this site, the reality is that the traffic may be nothing more than their bot pulling your page again to show it to a single user.

I get that, and only click through when the page is loaded. However, I do believe they claim this is their beta version and that will be corrected. From a surfers point of view, it is great and saves a ton of time skipping over useless pages that have no interest. And its very, very fast. I don't think this is the kind of thing I would like to block unless it became a problem. Its the first se that I have seen that is actually exciting to use. Unlike that three d piece of shit that hopefully failed. If this one isn't it, another will come along. Google is getting boring in its current form.
