Default Wordtracker Data

I've been doing some research lately, and I think I found my product to sell, but I don't really know what number to be looking for. The one example is this:
On Wordtracker, the keyword is used approx. 255 times per day and that is compared to 96,900 results on Google, and 800,000 on Yahoo. However, after looking at a lot of the sites, mine would be offering a selection that hasn't been seen thus far(the past 3 months).
With those numbers, would it be time to set up a website and see the kind of traffic I get through PPC and SEO?

As for the other idea, it gets used approx 21863 times per day but that is compared to over 100 million websites on Google and 500 million on Yahoo. However, the idea created around it is something NONE of the other websites have that they ALL NEED... So I figure I would be the first to put that out there.
Thoughts, comments, and critiques welcome. Thanks for the input

Those are pretty good figures for the first keyword you mentioned. Wordtracker only has access to a very small portion of the data, so its likely a lot more searches then that. 96,000 competing sites means its probably fairly easy for an SEO firm, such as mine (shameless self plug) . Of course its more then just the number of competing sites. You also have to look at the sites on the first page and see what their page rank is vrs yours, age of domain, amount of their back links vrs yours, etc.

What did Google adwords estimate the click costs to be?
