Commenting on popular blogs.
Not blog spamming, but actually saying something intelligent in places where interested parties hang out.
You don't even have to mention your site in the comments, just the link from your name should get some clicks if you say intelligent things.

And oh - ya:
Blog Comment Spamming! That works too

Find the popular videos on YouTube, and post comments about the site there.
20,000 hits = a few people clicking on your link, before the staff sees it, and deletes it.
