Do you use Alexa?

[LiNuX]

Alexa is a webmaster website designed to rank websites from 1 to whatever. Millions of websites are registered there along with Gamers Forum.

So how do they calculate alexa rank? They have a little toolbar you can use with your browser. If you have it installed, and you visit a web site, you count as a visitor to them. If you don't have it installed, you are no one to them.

So do you use it? Their site is: Alexa the Web Information Company

I never used their toolbar so I was never a visitor to any of their registered web sites. I think it's bad to rank web sites based on who visited with their own toolbar. I know it's their only way to track visitors - but they could have worked with web sites and install some form of code to track the visitors, but they didn't.
