    Alexa rankings are not known for their accuracy, easily manipulated, and I don't think anyone would (or should) price a site based only on its rankings. I wouldn't pay anything for one of those domains based solely on its ranking. The #5 is has a general ranking of 535,154 which isn't very low. If you could examine the logs and determine where the traffic is coming from you might be able to place some value on the traffic, but ultimately the most value comes from any income the site is generating. A ballpark figure on the value of site from a revenue perspective is 12 to 18 months net income (after operator is paid for their time, or an allowance is made if they receive no compensation).

    Alexa traffic ranking is VERY inaccurate. You can get your numbers very low.. install alexa toolbar and set your default homepage to your site.

    I wouldnt buy anything based on alexa.
    Check the real stats.

    Not only are they inaccurate, there is at least one program being sold that runs in the background and uses proxies to hit your site thousands of times a day and can put your rank at whatever you want. They say the program gets you listed in the Alexa movers section, but who follows that anyway? It would do nothing to help traffic and could really screw up your logs. I can't believe there are people who buy it, unless they want to use the number to sell their site - which is why you always need to look at the logs to see where traffic is coming from.

    mjewel, I-Faker does not work. They say it works but infact it does not use the Alexa Toolbar, thus not work.

    Just to smile... reading this thread, I looked at my main site stats (70,762) and below it says:
    People who visit this page also visit:
    :) I don't use the counter and it's a travel site... but it's good if it references to DP.
