I suspect that is how the Google Toolbar does it. Sector-Seven, I have not explored Compete but I do remember reading somewhere that Google PR can be obtained in a similar fashion.

I have been searching for a while, and everybody is offering their own "widgets" for other people to put on their sites. I don't suppose Compete or Google PR have similar interfaces? Hey,

If the domain contains a digit, the script will return that digit as the page rank. I have no idea why it is doing that, but I try my best to find out why. If I find a solution to this bug I will make sure to post it here. And I would appreciate if you looked into this. Thank you Hi,

Alexa rank measures traffic to a site (as in number of visitors). Page rank is a measure of page "popularity" on the web. Both these measure different aspects of a page/site. Since Alexa rank does not imply higher PR, it may not be a factor in SEO. That may be true. Alexa rank measures traffic to a site (as in number of visitors).
