Is this guy lying about his site traffic?

I recently inquired with a website that I was interested in advertising on. He sent over his "media kit" that boasted traffic stats as follows..

Per Month
Hits: 12,719,181

Page views: 1,938,956

Number of visits: 224,049

Unique visitors: 92,394

So, this guy is claiming over 3,000 unique visitors per day!  Which is a pretty bold claim. Had he not "jumped the shark" with these stats I may have never questioned it. But after doing some following up, I can't find a single external website traffic metric to substantiate that this website is even getting minimal traffic. Heck, my site that I'm trying to advertise has him beat in Alexa, AHREFS, MOZ, and seomastering.com's tools. I realize that these things are not really all too accurate with specifics, but between those claims and what these traffic services reflect - the disparity is so great that something just doesn't add up. He only ranks in google serps because his domain itself is keyword rich, other than that he doesn't have a great SEO situation.

The site is Chicagolandradioandmedia.com 

Check into it and let me know what you guys think. I'd be interested in hearing some other opinions, because believe it or not I'd actually like to advertise there because it's well targeted for an audience I'd like to have. But his advertising prices are reflective of a website with the traffic as he claims it to be, but I don't know if it's legitimate..

status is looking like not genuine,, but one thing i can say.. getting 3000 daily unique visitors is not that much hard to get. If you invest just two to three dollars daily you can get this traffic from ptc sites or traffic exchange sites... But the thing is whether he is getting organic traffic or not...

Old but really bad tactic to bring trafic to your own website.

Take something as seemingly simple as how we measure web traffic. Metrics should be the most real thing on the internet: They are countable, trackable, and verifiable, and their existence undergirds the advertising business that drives our biggest social and search platforms.

If this guys reputation is accurate being a filipino destroyer, then Manny might be in trouble.  But if this guy doesnt live up to his reputation then Manny will drain this guys power and be called Dead Battery.  LOL.
