This looks like a great idea.
I think it would be great to use as an incentive for participating in a site after signing up. For example on my site, Scribophile, I don't consider a user 'converted' until they 1) sign up and 2) post a critique. Just signing up is useless to the site unless the user also participates.
Looking at the way you've implemented the widget, is there a way I can make the above scenario happen? So say there's a message after you sign up for Scribophile that says something like "write a critique within 5 days of signing up and get xxx reward!"
Also, how do you target these rewards? Again, for a site like mine, users wouldn't want a Kissmetrics account. They'd want something writing-related, like an Amazon.com gift certificate, or the like. Is there a way to choose specific rewards?
