I note that I have one, but no one else I looked at has.

Not sure, but I think it means that when someone else signed up, they put you down as their referring source.

There are no prizes or anything associated with it, at this time. In the beginning, I wanted to keep track of my own referrals, so I've just always had it turned on, because I never thought to turn it off.

There is a point system mod that I might install eventually, that would keep track of reputation, referrals, posts, etc. and we could have prizes, or contests. Looks a little daunting to me though, in that it seems to require quite a bit more hacking of the files than most of the other ones, like the chat for instance. This makes life much more complicated when you want to upgrade to a newer version of vbulletin. And sometimes you don't have a choice but to upgrade because of security reasons.
