You do realize that if it's in top 10 million, out of estimated ~640 million websites, it's right at the top? It's not misleading at all, it's quite down to the point, just like the article itself.

Alexa is generally a poor metric. In my experience directly comparing Google Analytics to Alexa for hundreds of sites, anything above 50k rank is not pushing meaningful traffic.

Yeah, but that's not like a huge badge of honor. I can build a site and make it hit beyond a 200k alexa within a few months with minimal effort.
