There is some controversy over how representative Alexa’s user base is of typical Internet behavior. If http://www.alexa.com/data/details/main?url=www.fortunehotels.in Alexa’s user base is a fair statistical sample of the internet user population, Alexa’s ranking should be quite accurate.

Even my website’s ranking dropped, though by couple of thousands only.

Strangely, we are seeing a consistent increase in the number of unique visitors through Statcounter.com, the changes in Alexa ranking are slightly dis-aligned.

Wondering, how to make our visitors install Alexa Tool bar!!!

The new Alexa ranking so much more accurately reflects the quality of the websites in its listings with this update. But, then I would say that my Sciencebase.com site leaped back into the top 100,000

Thats a good news. Even when we know alexa ranking was all wrong, we had no other option good as alexa. And now we have something to trust in them.

@Anoop,
If you read the Alexa statement, then its clearly said that previous ranking was based on Toolbar.

Nice to know, about this change in alexa ranking system.
Could i know from where you have got this news?
Because Alexa ranking was not only based on its toolbar and collects information from different sources too.
