Can you guess the 10 most popular websites in the United States? To get that data, we turned to Alexa.com, which ranks sites based on traffic. While their rankings aren’t perfect, the “Alexa number” is a common metric when comparing things online. Mentalfloss.com is #7,627 (#1,287 in the U.S.), but we won’t make you count that high. You can just enter the site’s name (Google), not the URL (www.google.com).

After taking this quiz, I thought I would check out alexa.com.
At 11:56 on August 18th, the hottest current URL was http://blogs.static.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/32057.html
