For a website with under 100,000 Alexa rank.
Is there a formula to estimate visitor counts?

    Google chrome browser and download plugin called alexa traffic rank.

    There are plenty of plugins for chrome too!

      Will the plugin show the actual traffic? I can check Alexa rank on their website?

        No, it has absolutely no way of doing it. Alexa doesn't have actual traffic data. They depend on the browser plugin to create their wild guess.

        If you need traffic data, get Google Analytics or other similar service.

        Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
        Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

        What's your excuse?

    Alexa is highly, highly inaccurate for anything.

    Alexa is accurate if you pay for their service and install tracking on your site.

    Not very accurate otherwise
