What you post on HN matters a great deal: when we had a general start-up related article hit the front page we got traffic but few leads (like in OP's example).
But when we launched an interesting feature and hit the front page -- with the story's title obviously aimed at our target market of app publishers -- we got massive amount of leads as well.
