Default How do you find accurate search volume for a keyword?

I'm asking this because I've noticed sometimes the results that google keywords gives makes no sense to me.. for example I see a site ranked #2 for a keyword google says has 100k+ searches per month, but that site has an alexa ranking above 20 million, meaning it gets basically no traffic at all... Keep in mind, this is a site that actually is related to the search term! Surely this is impossible. How do you guys check the search volume for a keyword?

Well there is none around. Google should be the most accurate one. As far as I know wordtracker uses some meta search engines which have too little users on them.

So I guess what Google gives you are the most accurate results.

Hmm... I think my problem may have been that the default is set on "broad match" so it doesn't give me the results for that exact term but lots of similar terms too?

Even I think that the google keyword tool is sometimes not accurate. Can anyone suggest a good tool
