I worked on a site 20 years ago that got even better revenue per request (though with fewer requests).
It did analytics on bond deals. Cost $1k/month for an account. Minimum 3 accounts. Median logins, ~1/month/account.
On the other hand people would login because they were about to trade $10-100 million of bonds. So knowing what the price should be really, really mattered.

That's quite interesting! That's why I asked, I wasn't exactly doubting the figure, just curious about the market that allowed that kind of customer targeting.
