Default Re: how alexa ranking work?

That's the reason why there has been controversy surrounding the issue on how accurate their measurement is. Let's say, if site A is getting 100 visitors per day and 80% of them are using Alexa compared to site B which is getting 1000 visitors per day but only 5% are using Alexa, this means that the ranking of site A is much higher in Alexa measurement.

Although one may argue that this scenario is rather unlikely, it could still be possible if site A is a webmasters forum whereby the visitors all have strong webmasters related knowledge and knowing how to use Alexa toolbar.

Meaning that if those visitors without the toolbar will not be counted to the ranking?!

Then this isn't so accurate already, right?
