I think you've answered your own question.

The safe way to get more Adsense traffic is to set up a new site, get links to it, and wait out the sandbox. _Don't link to it from your money-maker_.

The real trick is to mimic a 'normal' site becoming popular over time, in terms of incoming links and page number increases.

I have the impression Google is getting very clever at spotting abnormal behaviour in web sites.
