    You could check and see if their stats directory isn't password protected lol

    Stats pages come in many forms tho with many aliases

    Otherwise, unless you want to hack into their site (or google analytics) (don't do it) then NO.... there is not a legal way to do that.

    I think you can find what you're looking for at Alexa.com! They pretty much detail every type of traffic statistics for every website.

    Give it a look.

    Best of Luck,
    Chris

      If they have a decent amount of traffic you may be able to find them on Quantcast.com . That is a wonderland of information.

      Onward & Upward!

    Try Compete, Dont think you will find much better than that.

    Dont think you could ever spy on another website accurately.

      ^^ WRONG, you can always SPY on a competitor accurately. Trusting those third-party sources without accurate information is the untrustable source.!! lol

    OK,

    Wasn't looking back far enough in the thread.

    I suppose that is always worth a try when doing CI.

    Thanks,

    Hey there ste25
    Do you mean to say that Alexa's result is not valid at all? they seem to give me accurate info though, I wonder why you say that.

    I use statbrain[dot]com

    They tell me exactly how much traffic a site is getting, there pretty accurate too, I tested it with a few my own sites, it cures my curiousity!
