PHP Call Alexa Rank Possible?

Is there a way to call a sites Alexa rank into PHP without using the Alexa Widget? I would like to display the Alexa rank on my site, but the Alexa widget placed onto my site actually decreases my Alexa rank so I don't want to use the widget. I don't need graphics to be displayed, just the number. Can I bring it into a php script directly?

 

I sure hope I won't be taken as spammer but I have all this on my website. Anyways, grab the link. I hope it's what you need.

 

Thanks a lot it's exactly what I was looking for.
