According to Alexa Traffic Rank, “The traffic rank is based on three months of aggregated historical traffic data from millions of Alexa Toolbar users and is a combined measure of page views and users (reach). The main Alexa traffic rank is based on the geometric mean of these two quantities averaged over time.”
Alexa ranking can be improved by adhering to the mentioned implementations:
