TE... I can give this a bit of a shot, but I doubt it will put much light on what you're asking.
With regards to ratios, it all depends on how the affiliate program is counting their clicks. Further to that, the niche has a lot to do with it as well, not to mention the origins of the traffic. Let's share a bottle of gin sometime and we can talk about ratios all night and get everywhere and nowhere.
As for trials, I have never been a fan. We could do without them as far as I'm concerned. But since they're here, there are some interesting ways to offer them and still make money (both the program owners and their affiliates). Take Teenrevenue for example. Once you get to one of our join pages, you'll note there is no trial offered. Only a monthly or more option. But once they close the join window, the trial gets offered to them. This makes for much more full month signups and thus... more rebills.
