My initial description may have been a little abstract. Maybe I should
explain exactly what I'm trying to do. My company has various revenue
channels, one of which is per click. If a user does a search, we would
like to show results with the greatest revenue, although we don't want
people to be able to buy all the top results. Hence, we would like to
have some way of mixing results. The mixing of results could be based
of potential revenue, relevancy, which revenue stream the result is
associated with, etc.

The previously mentioned ideas are great btw.
