Quote - hey Pengy... some people are seeing much different traffic statistics with Alexa... can you do the same, and see what you come up with based on th einfo you used at quantcast?
If you google around the web, you'll see blogs / forums / articles where internet traffic stats are hot debate topics. It can get nasty. I've seen blogs denouncing Alexa -- and others.
My own conviction is that it's all ballpark -- and that's about the best that anyone can come up with. Outside of the people who actually run the site -- and can measure the activity on their own servers. Which is information that they aren't likely to share with any outsiders.
