    Alexa, is not only taking traffic now, but i think it have alot more factors, and also alexa only counts when a visitor has the alexa bar installed

    The widget I believe is the three month running average and that only updates every week or so.

    don't focus on Alexa and stats. Focus on money you make.

    Alexa's numbers are just good for estimation - for example, before you buy traffic or ad space from certain websites, you can base the Alexa numbers to predict the traffic volume. But it's not absolutely accurate. Unfortunately without a more accurate "traffic estimator" that covers a wide enough range of traffic sources, we are still much reliant on Alexa...

    Alexa is an estimate, so do not take it precisely when it is not precise per se.

    Ultimately Alexa is a mass market measure. With the sheer number of sites and blogs these days I think it is more important to have focus and serve a particular market segment.

    alexa is based on the toolbar -so the visitors that don't have the alexa toolbar don't count for alexa ranking
