    According to me, they are not going to ban your account, because this is not bulk traffic. You can't be sure if the people are "real" or just a robot...

    It does harm and can get you that dreaded mail, "your account poses a significant risk to our advertisers"
    This is because those traffic even if it is human they are untargeted, adsense likes organic search traffic as those visitors are searching specifically for those keywords for which your pages are optimised
    My 2 cents:)
