It would be trivial to implement a simple listener in JavaScript that sets a cookie when an ad is clicked, and verify said cookie on the download request.

Why wouldn't this work? How much do you get per American click if you were using AdSense?
 
It's a bad idea and you should not do it. Google can figure it out really quick.

I assume Google profiles sites with AdSense code and calcultes the conversion rate, but that would be easy to bypass by randomly showing the "Click ad to unlock content" message. I could also bot hits instead since I doubt AdSense take hit scrubbing very seriously.

If Google checked for strings like "Click Ad", I could just create an image that says "Click ad to unlock content" and put it where the text would be.

I don't see how else Google could possibly find out that I'm breaking their TOS.
 
Let me see if i understand. You want to send traffic to minimize the CTR?
 
If you have ever done that or similar in the past you would have a history of Google banning that adsense account at some point.

You may get a couple of months of checks, although that is not the norm, but you will surely lose that account and any money in it when it does get banned.

As to how much you would get for an American to click that depends on the ad cost to the advertiser and which Americans you are talking about.

There is North America, Central America and South America and they all have multiple countries.
 
I've read before that Google will keep visuals of your sites to check previous clicks if needed. They will have a visual record of your click ad image which can be manually checked at any time.
 
with this method the CTR will be +20% so this will trigger a manual review => boom BAN

So I will use JavaScript randomization and fake hits(that don't click on the ad) to keep the CTR below 20%.
