    No idiocy at all, I should've taken a bit more time in the response...
append mv_pc=affiliateid to your url, like www.mysite.com?mv_pc=google .
Then Interchange will use this as its "source" value which will show up in
the traffic and order logs as well as on the admin "view order" pages.
Further still, you can add the affiliate in interchange's affiliate manager
(making sure the id you are passing via mv_pc is the same as the id you set
up in the affiliate manager) and then you can run the order and traffic
reports against each affiliate.  It's really nice for tracking traffic and
order origination.
