I think there's a lot of variance in type of app, and how conducive they are to the app store. I also think that a conversion app would have made 0 dollars on any other platform.
Games aside, as that's a whole market of its own. I haven't heard of any complex, high quality apps being developed and completely ignored. Though some have done well for awhile, and then been rendered obsolete by features in newer iphones. A lot of people seem to write weekend, single feature apps that sell for a day or two and then get ignored, and they blame the app store for the fact that they wrote a program no one really wants to use.
