Cookies will still work, but only during that user session. Once the browser window is closed the cookie disappears. What this means is that returning surfers, that don't use a link with an affiliate code, will not get credited to the affiliate.
I've not seen any data, so this is just speculation on my part, but I don't think that is all that high a percentage of total affiliate sales.
I'm not aware of any alternate method for tracking returning surfers.
