An app promotion strategy

I have been thinking about this for a long time... imagine a app that has advertisements for the first couple days or so and than offers to remove ads in exchange for you rating the app. Actually, instead of days, make them get to level __ to remove ads. So what would happen is every user pays for the app with 30 min. (ish) of advertisements and than adds popularity to the app and... repeat exponentially!
(typically, i find that if a app "pays" you to rate their app, the app gets good ratings even though users still get the reward if they rate badly)
I just wanted to sort of... donate this marketing strategy i thought up to the community. It might be good, it might be terrible. I've never seen this done before. Is there a reason?
What do you think about this strategy (and feel free to use it )? :-bd
disclaimer: i know next to nothing about in app advertisements and marketing strategies. This may not even be possible.

Meet Kate. Grey is her favourite colour. Maths is her favourite subject. Decency is her favourite type of behaviour.
She definitely does not like jewellery or modelling, but loves aeroplanes and other machines made of aluminium.
The main problem that you won't be probably able to verify if the user really rated your app or not, but you can always bluff

Depends what they mean by "any other inappropriate methods"...

however we can always try something like unlock so and so character or levels by giving honest rating (again bluff but fine as per the rule as we are not getting fake review here?) by sharing on fb or twitter.
