    I just went and looked up my site, and saw this 54% increase in 3 month page views, 140% increase in one month page views, 180% increase in 7 days page views and 5300% increase in page views:

    This is odd, trying to figure out what happens, lol. Maybe someone fell asleep on the keyboard with Alexa toolbar while surfing my site? Trying to find a more reliable gauge for traffic.

    Alexa rank is BS. Only tracking people with alexa toolbar, do you know of anyone not in IM that has one voluntary? I don't. I've increased site rank by 10 fold just by installing the toolbar.

    yes I think the same - it is a misleading indicator
    the general public (non internet marketers) do not have the alexa toolbar
    just keep posting regularly to your blog and your alexa ranking increases
    whether you have a handful of daily visitors or thousands.
