Another use you should consider is to follow the FON model - you can spend TorCoins to buy bandwidth from people operating networks.

The more bandwidth you share for TOR, the more free wifi you get. If you only "sell" wifi to torcoin owners, you simply trade internet access time, but running a tor relay would be like "mining" in the traditional bitcoin world.

EDIT: The point I'm trying to make is that instead of "just" the way to create torcoins, this would also create a way to spend it (and provide value to people by spending it).
