Who uses the Alexa toolbar? And why? And do you really think that the benefits outweigh the dissadvantages of having your every online move tracked?

The only people who use the Alexa ranking are crooks and the uninformed. The Alexa ranking has absolutely zero legitimacy, it's no different then me making a website and putting up some random rankings. I do not think anyone in the SEO industry who you would consider a professional uses the Alexa ranking, so they are not tarnishing the image or reputation of the industry as a whole.
