I guess I don't feel that I - or anyone, really - can possibly have a big enough MTT sample size (Have you played 100,000 MTTs? Have you even played in 10,000?) to know what their true hourly rate is.
Take Jamie Gold... if he's played in 10 big tourneys (and I don't think he has), do you really think it's fair to say that he is averaging winning $1.2 million per tourney he plays in? Of course not.
With a given cash game, the most you can win or lose is $x over 8 hours. Just for fun, let's say you're playing $5/$10 NL and that number is, I dunno... $10k. Now, with a $10k tourney, the most you can lose is once again $10k, but you could win (depends on the tourney) millions.
It's just apples and oranges.
