The Merchant Guide stickied on this forum that nobody seems to readwrote:
Merchant XP (Sometimes comes in lumps):
150 XP per hour per vendor [Received in lumps whne vender Exists*] (Can place first at Bus 3)
50 XP per view of vendors by person [Must click refresh or a category. Veiwing multiple vendors does not increase] (Can get every 10 minutes)
50 XP per visitor per house for Entry Fee [Can be on multiple houses that you own] (Can place at house terminal at Bus 1)
NO XP for purchases/bazaar ... none ... zip ... nada
Suggestion: Go up management first to get per vendor xp. Then Adv 3 for planetary map.
*Just like harvesters, vendors only exist when a player can see it. When there are no players arround the vendor drops from the servers memory. When another player comes into the house the vendor will load again, experience over time will be updated, and the vendor will "exist" till it unloads again.
So, if a person macros viewing your vendor, you will get an extra 300xp per hr per monkey you have macroing. The more monkies, the more xp. I'm sure you can calculate out the hourly xp you would get and how much less time it would take. But remember, you only get xp for the time the server is up. Don't expect 24 x 150 xp per vendor. You lose time for downtimes and reboots.
Good luck with your grind, you look like you have mastered many professions.

I've asked around to a couple people and no one has responded but I was wondering what the macro is for the refreshing the vendors?
You can email it to Dale on Radiant if you don't want to type it here.

Here is the macro I use... I have the monkey's say "Refreshing now" because someone might be able to figure out what they are doing just stading there a little easier that way (If they stay for up to 10 minutes anyway). I received a couple offersfrom people who wanted to help out, or who wanted to know the macro themselvs. Note the first command is AUCTION not ACTION:
/auctionUse;
/pause 5;
/say Refreshing now.;
/ui action defaultButton;
/pause 605;
/macro usevendor;
/pause 5;
/say Refreshing now.;
/ui action defaultButton;
/pause 605;
/macro usevendor;
