    No offense. But you can search a lots of site ranking top in Google doesn't have PR... :) Try to do more searches... I have seen PR0 rank 1 in Google over 2 millions searches before the updates that's really make the site having PR... And, many more... A high Page Rank site doesn't mean you gonna rank well on SERP... Honestly, PR doesn't help ranking... And, by the way, if a site reputation is for SERP then, this you means that PR is for SERP? How sure you are before asking me more further? Haha :)

    PageRank is a patented method to assign a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents.

    Alexa computes traffic rankings by analyzing the Web usage of millions of Alexa Toolbar users. The information is sorted, sifted, anonymized, counted, and computed, until, finally, the traffic rankings are calculated that are shown in the Alexa service.

    There is a rumour that Google uses Alexa rank in building its SERPs. I believe it is true.

    Make it easy, Alexa ranking is based on the traffic and PR is based on the backlink.

    PR is a useful shorthand to show how many links a site has and what it's potential could be for income. If someone wants to buy a site it can't hurt to know how much Google likes it. Alexa is a ranking system who some (myself included) would question it's accuracy. But my experience is that noone uses Alexa except for business owners who like to think they're better than the competition if they have a higher Alexa rank.

    Personally, if I buy a site, I'm concerned about unique visitors per month, monthly site income and any good keyword rankings in Google, because those things aren't arbitrary measurement systems, they're real numbers that mean something that's easily measurable and understood.

    I've never relied on Alexa. I prefer Google PR. But when it really comes to SEO and giving our site a boost, I rely on the SERPs. Google PR doesn't really matter when it comes to getting on the top pages of the search results. I've come across lots of sites with low PR and are number one in the SERPs.

    In my experience, this statement is the most accurate.
