It's probably no big surprise for those who are aware of Alexa's data collection method. Just be glad we only use these statistics for curiosity and bragging. For web companies who need to convince investors or advertisers of their value, I can easily imagine the situation becoming hellish.
We do not use them only for that. On the nl.wikipedia there is a huge group of people who consider Alexa to be the holy grail and use it to dictating what an article can be written about or not. I wished you were right Tim.
There's a rumour going around that on nl.wikipedia that there's a group of people who think that the rest of us "have no clue whatsoever when it comes to the meaning and regulations on copyright". Please tell me it's not true.
