Alexa thinks my site is something completely else...!?

Why on earth...?

I have a large site, getting around 2.5 million hits a week,

However instead of ranking it properly - Alexa seems to think, when I enter my site that its something else.

This then shows completely wrong information, wrong rank stats and even a different domain name...

What is going on?

Thanks so much

Harley

Alexa is not accurate. Its fun to look at but don't make business decisions on it. I would waste time worrying about. Their FAQ pages actually lists reasons why their information is bad.
