Have you downloaded the Compete.com toolbar yet?
Compete.com is another site dedicated to ranking or providing stats on other websites. You can throw it in the realm of Alexa or Google PageRank except this one will actually shows you the number of visitors a site has as well as its ranking within Compete.com. They offer a toolbar much like the rest of the website stat machines except this one has some extra benefits that I find particularly nice.
Once installed, you have the toolbar up at the top along with a stats bar down below. The status bar option is my favorite since it gives you the "People Count" for whatever website you are on. Instant traffic info! (Note: It does not work for you blogspot.com people.)
The status bar also gives you a ranking for the current site which lets you know where your site or the one you are on is ranking within their system. Instant ranking machine!
The other detail I like is the "snapshot" button that if clicked, will take you directly to Compete.com and an overview of the stats for the site you are on. So if you are a stat freak, or just like to know the stats for any website while surfing around then I suggest installing this.

nice little app. I added it and tried it but it seems to seriously slow everything down if you have severail windows open. Maybe my computer just sucks.
Get a new computer :P
Not completely accurate... you don't know what traffic estimation sites to trust, but it can be good for comparisons.
