Trying to use TI on a docked structure is insanity...
The docked structure is an approximation in its best case (more likely its simply crap). Applying a free energy calculation towards such a structure will give you everything...but sure not the the correct free energy of binding....except you are very lucky....IF you are that lucky, play lottery instead and enjoy life ;)

In fact it's (citating Mark) another expensive random number generator...

I think you're exaggerating a bit. Docking works quite well if you do it correctly, that is many (>=100) tries.
See my website below for some useful publications on docking...
