Wouldn’t you like to know how many visitors your competitors or your favourite blog gets ? Now it’s possible to find it out, free and easy…

WebInfoStats.com is a unique visitor traffic estimator which displays any website’s unique visitor numbers. Against Alexa’s top and percentage numbers, this is a very useful tool because Alexa is not showing directly how many visitors a website gets. Alexa shows you if a site is popular and rank in the top 100.000. But with this new site you can see an estimation of the unique visitor numbers a site gets. The site says, you should not take it as the exact visitor numbers, but they are pretty close. I tested all of my domains and ‘yes, they are pretty close’.

I hear you asking ‘How could they know ?’It’s a good question. The answer is they don’t, they only guess. They collect data from Alexa, Google and Yahoo like backlinks, Alexa ranking, indexed pages, combine and process them for an estimation on each site.

When you use WebInfoStats, it is important for you to remember that the number of unique visitors is different from visits, pageviews and hits. A ‘unique visitor’ is statistical metric where each visitor who generates traffic to a website is counted only once in a special time frame; generally on daily base.

This is an online solution where you enter only the url to get the stats of the site you entered. They also show some additional information about the website, like description, Google Pagerank and Alexa Rank. You can also navigate through the new sites added to their database.
