I have no reason to install something as useless as Alexa's toolbar.

The reason may be your anti-virus/spyware is blocking it. please check your anti-virus/spyware settings.

useless as Alexa's toolbar.
Alexa rank reflects the reputation of a website .... that's why i use it. they have millions of users so you can't say it "useless".
TRUTH ABOUT ALEXA it's results can be manipulated but only under 100K. As the ranking rises up accuracy also increases relatively.

Don't worry .... just make it "Ignore Always", and now it will work nicely.
