In other words, what I am trying to understand is how do people estimate their conversion on targeted traffic they buy on AdWords, etc?
A typical affiliate program can be used for this purpose, with the owner acting like his own affiliate. For each campaign a different affiliate account can be used, though affiliate tracking software does usually allow campaign tracking too.

I believe that Google Analytics had a convertion tracking system too, that can be used to find out which source of traffic brings what amount of sales.

So how do you get that conversion percentage? Do you just guess it?
You never really know until you test it.
