    No, it means there are 3,809,967 web sites that have more traffic than yours.

    Alexa can't rank anything well, better off just ignoring it. All it does is calculate how many users who use the alexa toolbar visit your site.

    If you install an Alexa widget that will help them to be able to calculate it a lot better. That way they can count the impressions a lot easier. You can get the code for the widget here: http://www.alexa.com/site/site_stats/signup

    I think the rank you saw was from Blogspot itself...

    Okay, I clicked on that link and it took me to a page where I need to sign up for various widgets to be placed on the website.

    Suppose I don't want the widget, but I would like to know what is the ranking (in Alexa of course) for a website.

    Does the Alexa toolbar show it? As "monfis" says, I do get huge numbers..but do they really mean that there are "x" websites having more traffic than mine?

    Please clarify.

    Thanks in advance.

    The higher the number, the lower rank you have for your site.
