Interesting to see Michael Arrington of Tech Crunch mention that the Reddit founders claim traffic of 70k uniques & 700k page views per day… while Alexa ranks the site at 942.

I worked for a site whose internal log stats pegged its traffic at 500,000 uniques per day and some 1.5M pageviews… and it was ranked at 900-1000 according to Alexa.  The catch is that Reddit draws a tech crowd while my former employer served a more mainstream audience, less early adopter, etc. 

This isn’t anything we do not know, but it is just a bit surprising to see so many educated people in the industry put so much weight on Alexa to make serious decisions with their and their client’s money.
