No such thing as a Lear 80...you mean Lear 60?
ProPilot Magazine has an annual salary survey, AvCrew.com has one, you can get rough numbers from Business & Commercial Aviation's Operations Planning Guide...but NBAA's Compensation Study is widely accepted and Stanton is likely the most accurate since its info is provided by HR, not pilots.
Pay in bizav varies depending on segment (91/91K/135), location, and types flown...but give us an idea of location and a type of plane and we can give you some guidance.

Below is an example from NBAA; Jet II would cover common light jets like CJs, 500-series Citations, Lear 20 and 30-series, Beechjets, etc.

For contract rates...
A good metric is to take the NBAA/ProPilot/etc. annual salary and multiply it times an average employer load burden of 30% to cover the costs that employers do not have to pay contract pilots (insurance, FICA, workman's comp., etc.)
Then divide that number by an average of 200 duty days per year to come up with a daily rate.
Example: Professional Pilot Part 91 Lear 60 Captain Salary (June, 2009) is $91,000/year.
$91,000 * .30 = $27,300
$91,000 + $27,300 = $118,300
$118,300/200 = $591.50 or rounded up...
= $600.00 per day
COLA adjustments for locale can be found at bls.gov
Hope this helps...
