I have a few suggestions

1. email notice to link owner when new recip link found - nice thankyou note (template)

2. email notice to link owner if recip link not found (template). Include recip link code in email notice to encourage recip site owner to get on the ball. This would be especially helpful in cases where a recip site owner temporarily posts the recip code, only to tear it down after a week or so (meaning, all they want is the link on your site, but not the recip on their site).

3. limited number of recip checks (auto-delete) - if recip link not found within X trials, then link is auto-deleted from db (but resets to 0 trials when found). This helps admin cuz admin could simply run the recip routine and basically let the plugin do the housecleaning - followed by email notice ("we haven't found our recip link on your site. So, we must delete yours from our site...boo-hoo.").
