Can anyone else not find Myspace? Has it really shrunk that much?

According to Alexa, MySpace is still at the #18 position among the most trafficked sites on the internet:

I'm not sure which I trust more: the Nielson report, or Alexa. Unless Nielson actually installed tracking code on each of those websites or got traffic information from the respective companies, I don't see how they generated their rankings. The same goes for Alexa. I doubt that either ranking is particularly accurate.

I think they must be grouping it under Fox Interactive Media which has a large chunk on the graph and encompasses things like MySpace and probably IGN.

Except Picasa, YouTube, etc. are not part of the big Google square. Weird.
