As I know Alexa computes traffic rankings by analyzing the Web usage of millions of Alexa Toolbar users. The information is sorted, sifted, anonymized, counted, and computed, until, finally, we get the traffic rankings shown in the Alexa service.
Alexa ranking is a ranking to your website which is measured by the visitors which visit your site by Alexa toolbar. Further details on the Alexa ranking visit What is Alexa Ranking - Alexa.com Importance and How To Improve Ranking | Jimvesting.com.

Alexa ranking is not great way to look at your website ranking, use serp checker and google webmaster tools
It shows the popularity of a site. They are ranking the site according to their site traffic
Your Alexa ranking gets more accurate the lower your ranking, but generally speaking it really sucks for data accuracy considering it uses people with the alexa toolbar, and most regular people who surf the net just don't know what Alexa is, and they wouldn't need to either so it's pretty meaningless IMO.
I guess some people use it as a rough measure and could help when it comes to selling your website, but more and more people are wising up to the fact that it can be easily influenced by those who know how.
There is a simple trick: buy website traffic.
You can buy cheap website traffic (unique visitors) and get great results on Alexa.
What is Alexa and how important is alexa for ranking?
how can i make alexa ranking better?
Alexa is based on traffic so i would suggest a social marketing campaign to get your Alexa ranking going,
I personally use Twitter a lot and it has got my Alexa rank from 2million down to just over 500,000 in a very short amount of time, i know that 500,000 sounds high but work hard at it every day and you will see the rewards
Alexa is useless and not reliable. The only reason why you may want to rank above 100K in Alexa is to sell advertising on your website, as some see it as a reference.
But traffic from Alexa is not reliable: only visitors who have the Alexa toolbar installed are counted!!!
Alexa Ranking is calculated by determining its popularity among the users using Alexa toolbar.
Something you don't need to worry about!
Sorry about that. But everyone else has explained it well enough in that it tracks the pages that Alexa Toolbar Users visit, and then ranks the website's accordingly.
The problem is that this skews the ranking as the majority of Alexa Toolbar Users are in the business/IM/online sectors. You're unlikely to get a house wife knowing what it is let alone having it installed.
What sites are used the most by advertisers when considering a websites 'worth' when placing direct ads?
