Is quantcast reliable, or are there exploits sites use to inflate numbers?

    Ive come across quantcast after using statbrain. But i want to know if there are exploits that sites use to bolster their "unique visitors" etc.

    Are there any better free traffic checkers ? preferably worldwide.
    If not, what are the best paid ones, and does that mean you can check up on any site with a paid tracking service ? and get real numbers ?..

    Hi Bitsoup,

    You can see on Quantcast.com if a site is "quantified". If the site is, that means our pixel is on their site and we are directly measuring traffic data. If a site is not quantified, the traffic numbers are estimates based on our data.

    Our platform is fully controlled by publishers, so you can show/hide any data you would like when you are quantified.

    Ping me with any questions.

    Thanks,
