Pay no attention to that, Alexa's stats are for the most part,....useless. Due to the fact that more people are using different web browsers, and they probably don't have the toolbar installed.
Like the others said, it's unreliable. They do not represent your site's REAL stats.

I'm going to have to disagree, it's not even that good. The metrics used to calculate it are for the most part, going extinct.
If anyone really wants to know how well their site is doing, don't worry about useless measurements such as Alexa, Google PR, or always counting your No. of Backlinks, etc. The only backlinks you should concern yourself with are ones that send your site visitors (also know as referrers in your website statistics).
