This will only work if you can cheaply validate the work performed. Or send it to several distinct visitors and compare results, driving down the likelyhood that the results are bogus.

good point. my hunch is that the only way would be to duplicate work and check for consensus. it seems like there isn't any way to cheaply validate results for any interesting work.
