Plugins cannot be added to WordPress.com blogs, just to WordPress.org blogs on independent hosts (which cost money).

Why don’t you just tell us what you want to accomplish and we’ll try and figure out how you can do that at Wp.com?

However, there are other stats systems you can put on it, although they may act quirky if they use javascript, which is prohibited.

Advertising
Advertising is, except for a couple very narrow exceptions, not allowed on wordpress.COM. For the exceptions, see the last sentence under “Affiliate marketing blogs” in the bottom set of bullet points in the “types of blogs” link below.

No you cannot add it to a wordpress.COM blog. Please read the support documentation where that is clearly stated:
Before Upgrading
The Domain Mapping Upgrade does not enable the permission to use advertising, any kind of prohibited code, or upload additional themes and plugins. With the upgrade, your blog will still be hosted here at WordPress.com, which means that you will not have FTP access to your files and must still abide by our Terms of Service accordingly.http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/
If you want plugins and advertising then hire a web host and get a free software install from wordpress.org. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

As your wordpress.com blog does have contents you can export them out of your wordpress.com blog and into a wordpress.org software install after you hire a web host and set up the software.

They DID recently announce a test feature for blogs getting a LOT of hits, wherein they can test adsense. But if you have no contents, you won’t have many hits and you won’t qualify.

Can you add anything like a Amazon-Showcase plugin to the wordpress.com? To display current books or movies with pics?
I’ve tried and can’t get it to work… -

aaroncoaalson,
raincoaster already said that “Plugins cannot be added to wordpress.com blogs”. No you can not add the Amazon-Showcase plugin to wordpress.com.
