Can anyone see any terms and conditions that apply to Amazon's use of the data returned? The "Program Materials License Agreement" doesn't seem to cover the service as such but the software you a licensing to include in your app to talk to it. Most of the existing services (Mixpanel, Flurry etc.) give them the right to use aggregate data for their purposes which has put me off using them so I initially sort of rolled my own but never got round to doing the analysis side. I would love to use this if the TOS are OK.

They do (unsurprisingly but annoyingly) have the right to use, access, retain and disclose your data "... and to collect, use, and share aggregated information about Amazon Insights." I emailed Amazon and they said this: "The Amazon Insights Schedule in the Distribution and Services Agreement addresses what you are looking for, and can be found here: https://developer.amazon.com/help/da.html" https://developer.amazon.com/help/da.html" Amazon Insights Schedule The terms of this Schedule apply if you use any of the Program Materials we make available to perform A/B testing and collect and analyze data from your Content (such materials, collectively, the "Amazon Insights API"). 1) Amazon Insights. “Amazon Insights” is a collection of services that we make available for you to enable you to perform A/B testing and collect and analyze data from your Apps.
