redirect based of referrer

Not yet, I'm certain it works...I should clarify my post. If someone comes to the site from a link, directly, etc., then I want them to go through to the site. If they happen to come in through the search results, I want to redirect them to another website.
Would this accomplish that without sending Gbot elsewhere?

Looks right then. I've never seen Googlebot send a referer header, so that shouldn't be an issue.
You could probably make the pattern on the RewriteCond line less restrictive, and include some other engines...
RewriteCond %{http_referer} google|yahoo|bing
Oh and I think the RewriteRule is only going to match requests where no path is sent (like hxxp://www.yoursite.comhttp://www.yoursite.com/). If you want this to happen for all pages then try something like
RewriteRule .* somepage.php [R=301,L]

Code:
<?php
$ref = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$find = "google";
if(strpos($ref, $find)){
header("Location: affiliate link");
} else {
echo("Suck my balls");
}
?>
