You are mixing in Twitter clients with web based Twitter services, directories, and link shortening. For the Twitter clients you need to take a look at the daily API usage stats here: http://twitstat.com/twitterclientusers.html For example, TweetDeck should be #1 on this list. How many people use TweetDeck daily but have never actually gone back to TweetDeck.com since they first downloaded it. Bit.ly and TinyURL are used daily by thousands of people who are not even members of Twitter. And how is Flickr ranked 21st? I just typed it in Compete and it receives 28,471,044 uniques per month. If I'm totally lost here as to how you are ranking, I'm sorry. Maybe you're counting referrals to Twitter.com? I don't know. This really doesn’t make much sense to me.

They are not quantified, but it isn't an order of magnitude off. At least quoting Quantcast you place the onus on a wesite wanting people to write the truth about them.

So data might be skewed or incomplete but it's the only available source for the moment. Hey Bernardo,
