It's at best a gamed impression.

Advertising and marketing are generally very intentionally tailored. You're not trying to reach any human, you're trying to reach a human in your target demographic.

Skewing results (and wasting resources) by paying people who are entirely outside your marketing effort to click through links (or take other similar resource-costing / data-skewing actions) is not the desired result.
