Oh, I'm sorry, I meant to say it was a free app. Must have been lost in
an edit.
When I tried to use Flurry to do verified installs at $1.40/install (for
my paid version @ $2.00, so I'd come out even -- the point would be to
push it up in the charts) I got ZERO installs over a week. They agreed
to refund the $500 I'd put into it (IIRC that was the minimum deposit)
because of a complete lack of success pushing the app.
In retrospect, though, I think it pushed up the downloads of my FREE
version by a lot, so maybe I should have let Flurry just keep the $500
to continue promoting the free version of my game. ;) I could always
have "spent" the money later by buying actual installs @ $0.75 of the
free version if they eventually stopped pushing the paid version due to
lack of user response.

I got a free $100 from AdMob and spent it all in 2 days. Despite
MILLIONS of impressions and thousands of clicks, I received no
more than about 10 installs per day AT MOST (the data was rather
noisy) for that $50/day spent.
Making the $0.75/verified install that Flurry (IIRC) was offering
suddenly sound like a good deal (compared to $5/install). Except
that my app wasn't making me $0.75/install, so I would have needed
to spend a LOT to get it up in the charts and hope that it stayed
there.
