Besides, if your class rank was #4, and mine was #28, who would be ranked higher? You. If UNC is ranked #2, and NC State is ranked #16, who is ranked higher? UNC. Then again, I interpreted the instructions correctly and still only got 6 right. I can see why you were confused, but I think people are getting a little nit picky.

I was wondering if I was the only one who did that!! I got a score of 30% because I followed the instructions and guessed the one with the HIGHER Alexa number/lower rank. So really I guess 70% right.

I just clicked the ones that I visit more often (well, not that you'll catch me skulking around PizzaHut.com or WeightWatchers.com), so I'm not sure if it's a good or a bad thing that I got a 55%!

I have mine up and running so I did very well on the quiz, as far as popular sites go. Lots of good guesses, got a 85%. BTW Mental floss is 10,779 now. It was less then 10,000 for a long time.
