    there are loads E, but they are all inaccurate and rubbish if you ask me.

    www.alexa.com is a popular one, yet it reckons 18% of this sites traffic comes from New Zealand, which i know is complete rubbish.

    yeah you can but you get that from your isp or put a counter in, so I would doubt other people's site info was up for grabs.

    Thats what I'm finding to be honest, they want tracking html text input first, then to track it afterwards, load of old cods.

    alexa.com will give you an estimate of web traffic for any site you key in. It works by sampling the sites that members of alexa visit. I believe it works out quite accurately for sites with a lot of traffic, but I'd take any results for small sites with a pinch of salt. You can contribute to their data as well by installing their toolbar.

    Yeah, alexa can be useful, but in the main offers up rubbish for most sites because it relies on those that download and use it's alexa toolbar (which is to say a small sample indeed).

    If a few of you download the alexa toolbar and browse this site on a daily basis, I guarantee you'll see a sudden Charlton Life surge up the alexa list!
