The thing about big stock agencies is that, even though sales may be few and far between, when you do make a sale, it's a big chunk of money. I have been on Shutter Stock for about a year and I've only made a total of $164 (granted, I only had about 43 images up until just a few days ago). On the other hand, I know one person who made a single sale with Alamy and got almost $400 for that image. I think if you have a good 500 images to submit and get accepted, and then have the dedication to keep submitting, you should go for it.
Unless you have thousands and thousands of images on microstock sites, you wont' really make that much money. All you'd need to balance it out in a year is to sell a handful of images with the big dogs. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
