No, I don't get much traffic at all. Maybe a few hits per day. But my sole purpose for listing with Yahoo was because I knew Google valued the link. My DMOZ listing definitely helped me back in 2002 when I first launched the site because as soon as I got listed in DMOZ, my Google traffic came immediately (literally... the next day traffic came). But that was in 2002. You no longer need DMOZ to get Google traffic.
