This is a pretty cool idea, but it could easily go out of control if even one news outlet picks the story up. I'd raise the price by a lot (like $9.99 a question), in order to keep volume reasonable.

pot. solution: pinboard inspired pricing - the more questions are in the queue (or the more question packages sold), the higher the - in app purchase - price.
Would anyone actually pay $10 a question?
People will pay for anything :)
Yes, but how do you get them to do that?

(Serious question. Not kidding.)

Have you tried asking yet?
Yes. But apparently extremely badly...or something.
