When it comes to web services that track web site traffic we think of Alexa. But we know that Alexa and other like services could not really give us accurate statistics because they just compile third party data instead of looking at your actual server data.
Now Google has enters the game with Google Trends.Google gets its stats from a combination of sources like search traffic, anonymous Google Analytics figures, and other third party marketing data.
This is not to say that Google Trends can give more accurate stats than Alexa and other services but at least we have another point for comparison to get us nearer to what is accurate.
