Every month, Marcello Calbucci diligently posts a list of Seattle Tech Startups sorted by their Alexa/Compete ratings (including details about their movement on the list). The November SSI is out! It’s a great resource and (quite honestly) exciting to see so many Seattle companies doing interesting things. And it’s gratifying to see RescueTime (which is still in private beta, mind you) continuing to climb the list (we’re at #70– well ahead of quite a few funded companies).

Can’t wait to see where we end up when we actually launch.

Of course, it’s important to note that Alexa and Compete are complete and utter bunk. It turns out that most sites/services that try to understand where people are going on the web aren’t reliably accurate. Don’t believe me? Check out SEOMoz’s exhaustive study. Still, just because you can’t trust it doesn’t mean it isn’t interesting. Marcello is smart to include both Alexa and Compete data.

I’d love to see someone create some sort of meta-score… Pull data from Alexa, Compete, Technorati, Comscore, and a few dozen other sources and present the mean/median/standard deviation/etc.
