Well, I've dug up some numbers. Maybe I should have done that before I
wrote the first time. I'll cite the figures anyway in case they are
useful to somebody.

The stats were shared by some German blogs in 2010. Not much data
otherwise, since Flattr is perfect for bloggers and has especially
strong user base in Germany.

An average transaction seems to be around 0.21 Euro. On the Flattr
website, an above-average piece of software has upwards of 300 clicks in
total. So yeah, the numbers are not impressive.

My raw numbers are as follows, mostly per some month in 2010:
carta: 773 clicks / 201.22 Euros
netzpolitik.org: 2256 / 576.53
taz.de: 5590 / 988.50
stefan-niggemeier.de: 1186 / 344.71
tim.geekheim.de: 1489 / 208.54
wirres.net: 247 / 77.19
spreeblick.com: 430 / 110.94
