You have a point here. I am one of the users that can't buy from the
Android Market. If the app cannot be purchased from something other
than Google Checkout, then I seek alternative apps. Many others I
know, however, would rather just jump to the nearest torrent site and
get the app illegitimately.

The solution is to offer other ways to buy the app, and advertise
them. Alternative markets are one way, and direct selling is another.
Hopefully the Android Market will improve it's International payment
process, but even then it is not a good idea to rely on a single
distribution method.
