Alexa must not only rely upon just the data collected from the Alexa toolbar but others like backlinks etc, @John:Don't get bothered about your alexa ranking..,your blog is very nice ...:) I hate alexa…..i dunno why it’s so famous that it has become a important factor during selling of sites…

They don't trust Alexa much yet they are using it as a yardstick when they sell their sites. I just hope their new traffic ranking algorithm is more accurate and realistic.

A ranking system that is mainly based on traffic from users that have the tool bar isn't a real ranking system IMO. I also feel the same for Google too. If they have the ability to just change your PR at a whim, then IMO their ranking system is flawed too. You get what they want you to get, and it's not based on your real traffic.
