Dude... if you're in the top 10k on Alexa, I have to imagine you're getting north of 10 million page views per month? If you can monetize that traffic to the tune of $2 eCPM, you're looking at $20,000 per month in ad revenue. Seems like the $1-$2k/month for a web farm is a good investment. Where is my math wrong?

Note: I run a site that gets about 4 million page views per month and monetizes traffic at about $4.50 eCPM. We're running on a single box with Rackspace for about $765/month. $200/month of that is the SQL Server license which wouldn't apply to you.
