Alexa problem

[Kodeking]

If you go to an alexa rating of a website, it shows that its 3 month change is down by the millions, namepros.com shows it, gamedose.com shows it. I think most sites have this problem in the listing.

Also, Namepros.com which has been top 10000 every day in the past week, now shows a week average of 612,964!

Whats wrong here?!?!

i don't even believe in alexa ranking. most of the time i think it is inaccurate by a huge margin. Does anybody else share this opinion?

I'm feeling this way now! They can't keep records, and its only based on a small number of people (compared to all internet users)

Seems usually they could be off =x

might have been caused by the roll over to the new year, some stat programs gets messed up by that

Yea, something is strange. For NamePros, we're just today ending one our biggest traffic days.

"Most users ever online on a day was 295, Yesterday. "

Edit: looks like it corrected itself already.
