    It is obvious that Google somehow uses data from Google analytics for ranking a site. Do you think if everybody switched to another stats counter Google's SERPs would change significantly?

    Possibly, but unless you're an insider or know someone we'll never know.

    Google might be using the GA data to compare your site from other top results from similar niche.

    I understand that google may use the data from analytics. But I don't believe they have high impact on the SERPs. There are stil high quality websites in the top of search results which don't use analytics. And google cannot expect that 100% websites will use their stats. So they must be able to rank the websites without there data.
