    Yes. Answers.com did $20.75 million in revenue in 2009. Traffic stats for 2010 were, unique monthly visitors 52.3 million in the USA and 86.8 million world wide.

    So lets do some maths.

    52,300,000 x 12 = 627,600,000 (US Only Uniques)
    86,800,000 x 12 = 1,041,600,000 (Worldwide Uniques)

    Now for revenue per unique visitor (average).

    20,750,000 / 627,600,000 = 0.033 USD (Per USA Unique)
    20,750,000 / 1,041,600,000 = 0.019 USD (Per Worldwide Unique)

    You could then use that as a bench mark, so if you get 100,000 unique visitors a year/month then you should of made $3,300 (US Only) or $1,900 (Worldwide) year/month. If you were monetizing in the same way. Also note that's variable, so it's likely to fluxuate.
