To be punished for targeted traffic due to an algorithm that bans by ip would miss a legitimate traffic opportunity.

I have a local website for a sports league I belong to, I think it would be great for adsense advertisers (equipment, information, etc), but I can't risk someone with the same ip block clicking my ads.

If that was the case, then it would make more sense for you (and for them) to be the affiliate yourself since the traffic is so targetted.

You paying the middle-man is just costing you money (In that the affiliate is getting the referral $, so they're paying you less than that or they wouldn't be doing it).

So yet again, on both levels it would not make sense for that situation to play itself out.
