While going through the old delurking week posts, I found the link to an interesting post regarding VS's stats.
http://www.videosift.com/talk/Alexa-Stats-for-VideoSift
Thought I would post the new ones.

Plus I'm happy that videosift isn't mainstream. DeviantART, for example, is in the top 100 ( currently 83 ). I've had quite a lot of bad experience there, from more and more bad art ( mostly anime ) to incredibly pointless comments, to the generally horrible behavior of most of the members.
IMO Videsift deserves to be in the top 100, but if it were, it wouldn't be the way it is now. But yeah.. top 1000 or so would be nice.

Yeah, thanks for posting this, karkarlee. Interesting (and I would have thought that the sift would at least be in the top 5000... we need to spread the word, I guess).
Who knew Americans were just barely over half of the users here? Kind of scary. We need to build a wall now, before we become a minority.
And yeah it's pretty scary.. Better hurry with the wall or we foreigners might getcha all!
FINNISH LAKE TROLLS! Awaken D:

Alexa is helpful, but maybe not the best ranker out there.
We use compete.com increasingly - as the stats seem to be a bit more accurate. The absolute BEST one is Google Trends - because they're google - but the downside is that they don't give any real numbers, just comparisons. http://trends.google.com/websites?q=videosift.com%2C+popurls.com&geo=all&date=all&sort=0
In a way comparison is better than numbers, 'cause the blind ranking isn't gonna tell you much. Even if a billion people visit goatse, it doesn't make it a cool, informative site.
