Isn't Search ad revenue >$100Bn per year?

Isn't that >$0.07 per search?

From what I can tell, yearly Search ad revenue is in the neighborhood of $104 billion [0], and the number of yearly searches served by Google is somewhere in the neighborhood of 3.1 trillion [1]. This brings the revenue per search to somewhere between 3 and 3.5 cents.
