But I probably don't get nearly much visits as you do. Also, they're just probably happy with someone clicking on their links.

Not every wordpress blog has enabled this option. A Spammer who sends out millions of request per hour wont bother about these details... Not all Searchengines ignore links with ref="nofollow". See http://www.einfach-persoenlich.de/2007-05-13/google-harte-fakten-zu-nofollow-bei-google-yahoo-ask.html for some details. Beside the SEO-Effect there are still many people who click on the links and maybe on some of the adds waiting there. Or they buy one of the Products. There are even more answers to this ;-) Nice to have things like Kismet, Captcha and "silly Questions" to separate between Spam and Users.
