The reason is that even if I disallow hotlinking, there are still hundreds (or more) of requests a minute to the domain. What I want to do is try and stop those requests instead of just blocking them as I think it'd be better on the server. Good question Paul.

They still come to the site then get redirected. Good idea, but it didn't work well. Andy, the 301 redirect doesn’t stop all the requests. They still come to the site then get redirected.

I might hit this problem with my LinkedIn Fast button, but I love the backlinks so pay the price. I have seen some buttons use Flickr but I am sure that is against the Flickr rules if you have a blog with advertising. Did you think about using a 301 redirect?
