Jeff, there are no doubt some duds in there and I don't speak Japanese.
They mostly had decent serp, overture, bids etc. but some are no doubt secondary terms. I also checked the .com on all before regging...
You take your best shot in this game and play the odds to some degree. If I am lucky with 25% when IDNs take off it will be a good investment. I think that number will be closer to 75% in reality.
At any rate, you can find IDNs any way you like. My time is valuable and buying lists suited my needs. NONE of the lists I bought were bullshit or worthless. Maybe a few names, but overall an extreme amount of work went into them.
BTW- It is paper. Jim Breem Monash Japanese Dictionary will confirm that.
Maybe not as good as the Kanji...but "Paper" ペーパー.com and .net were reg'd in 2000' so someone must think they are OK to pay on them for 8 years.

How about a few stats...
GOOGLE has 457,000 images of paper stuff:

MONASH JAPANESE DICTIONARY- has it at top of list with definition as "paper" so I gotta think that is correct...
