It couldn't get rougher than using Alexa Riverwire - a finger in the air is probably more accurate. Only kidding!!!

I agree with you both, its not an accurate measure of traffic, but the problem is alot dont know that. So if your selling a site or links/ads to the site some judge by Alexa ratings.

Probably just changed there colour scheme :P

As for the OP question. Alexa has no bearing on rankings what so ever.
