Just to clarify, the newest version has haunt at only 265% dmg at only a 6 sec duration.
if you look at haunt at lvl 1 and at lvl 13 it increases in duration and dmg every level. so before lvl 30 it will be at 500% and 15 seconds like on the skill calc
orly? I was unaware, nvm =D

Haunt is a dot and as a dot it can stack DPS. At max level haunt deals 33,3% WDPS. Comparing it to firebats, it deals only 1/3 of it's damagem which is pretty i guess. However you can't stack the DPs of firebats and other spells like firebombs or poison darts (because you can't cast two spells at once can you?).
But you cna stack the DPs of haunt and other attack spells. If you cast Haunt and Firebats your WDPS will be 133% because both spells damages at the same time. If you cast Firebats and other spammable like plague of toads your dps will be the spell with higest DPS because once you use one ability the other is not being used. This is easily done because the skill have 15 seconds, so you after the first cats you will have like 14~14.5 seconds to stack your DPS.
Haunt is also the cheapest WD spell AND most mana efficient spell (it deals the most damage per mana point spend). Mana efficiency is a very important because in long fights you usually use all the mana you have. And long fights exist will exist in D3..

"In time the hissing of her sanity
Faded out her voice and soiled her name
And like marked pages in a diary
Everything seemed clean that is unstained
The incoherent talk of ordinary days
Why would we really need to live?
Decide what is clear and what's within a haze
What you should take and what to give" - Opeth
