You can have a 0 PR and have a good number of visitors, and have a high PR and a low number of visitors.

Rather than directories, focus more on forums, social networks, etc. where you can clearly see there is HUMAN activity.
Objection sir. I work extremely hard on my directory and I take no pleasure in rejecting almost all submissions. They are rejected for one simple reason "You are not up to scratch".

Today I still have PR0 - but serps is Top10, but it hasn't always been so. The directory isn't perfect but gee I don't like someone saying "don't waste your time."

Directories do have HUMANS behind them and the best of them will share their thoughts that they cannot believe how much work is involved in setting up, promoting, and maintaining them.

My apologies, I just got a little uptight then
