> alexa I was shocked at the detailed information Alexa (owned by Amzon.com)_ had about my website. I wrote them and asked how they got it. They said volunteers use a special browsing tool that reports website visits. They use that to generate the information. I suppose then one way to bump your stats is to use the tool for maintaining your own website. The weakness of this approach is it is unusual group of people who will voluntarily submit to having their usage spied on. These are not a typical group or a large group. Google has AdSense that will let them know in huge detail the hit stats on a huge hunk of the web, but I don't know if they publish that information anywhere. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products The Java Glossary http://mindprod.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
