t is based on the amount of traffic recorded from users that have the Alexa toolbar installed over a period of three months. This traffic is based on such parameters as reach and page views.

In My experience that even Alexa the traffic estimator rank based looks into all factors like

--Page views

--Quality and diversity of these views

--Bounce Rate

--Time on site

Reviews on alexa do not matter as much so do not waste your time doing it.

I use Alexa rank for approximate calculation of popularity and traffic. I never used it as a very accurate tool for assessing improvement of website popularity. But it does help a bit. Like Similarweb.

From my experience I learnt that Alexa uses some of these points to calculate their rank.

Traffic received by the website.
Quality and amount of contents.
Bounce rate and CTR ( Connected to point 1 )
Avg. daily visitors and Time spend on a website, including page views.
Internal links and Backlinks to the websites. Especially from sites related to your blog/ site niche.
Mistakes from Alexa team. Yup it is not perfect.
Addition of Alexa widget & usage of their toolbar.
Multiple url request from the same user ?..( possible ranking factor )
Monitored traffic sources and un-monitored sources. ( might make difference )
User interaction and social media activity ( ? )
