Re: scraping - I don't think it makes a big difference whether you have subscription or ad revenue here. My site can be scraped of course but I don't plan to make serious money on it anyway.
Your project can do better or worse depending on the visitors' demographics.
I'm small fish here, but since question was asked I will share. https://random.country/ brings me around 40$ passive income monthly. Around 5K visitors monthly. Probably it could bring me more money with one more ad.
I like the quiz, but I wish it told me the correct answer when I guess wrongly. You could give the correct answer either immediately or at the end of the quiz; either way would be fine.
I currently pull in about $300k/year in revenue and $80-$100k/year in profit.
I use a number of credits cards for the ads to get points, so I consider it a source of revenue and vacations.
It's not easy to make a site like this and it as been a long road, but a worthwhile one.

There is no good revenge calculator to use as a baseline because it makes a broad assumption about demand for your audience.
if you care only about ad revenue, look for subjects that have high cpcs in Adsense. Those are a good place to start as the potential profit is more easily modelable. However, you also at wind up with subjects that are very esoteric or otherwise boring to you.
The other options is something you like as a subject to build content or a community around. You may have lower revenue but a much more fulfilling project.
My one major piece of advice is to look at how you creat unique value overall. If your site is easily replaced then the valeu is low and your staying power in the face of competition is very low.
If your site is something that users can't live without, then you are far better off.

At what point you approached an affiliate and what analytics you use to bill an affiliate ? in short how is deal made and managed.

..$300k/year is really a good amount! And what are your expenses - $200k is high - you pay someone to manage site ?
I make about $600/mo pretty consistently with a typing game ( http://zty.pe ) - about 200k visits/mo. I once managed another project that had about 14m visits/mo and made a meager $3000. Bad target demographic.

I think I might used this to practice touch typing. It looks addicting :) I tried to bookmark it by hitting command-D (in Safari on a Mac), but since you capture all keystrokes, I couldn't bookmark it. Perhaps you'd see a bump in your numbers if you allowed command-D through?
Windows, Chrome, bookmarking seems to work fine?
