New Google Trends shows only Google traffic?

Hi All,

This appears quite interesting, go to Google's newest toy, their Trends:

Google Trends

type in your favorite url and see what comes up.

It appears to me that this shows how much traffic a site is getting strictly from google.

Hence, if you compare this with alexa, (remember a site can be shooting up at alexa based on a traffic swapping scheme, or some type of round robin scheme among a bunch of their own sites, or a network of sites) the results can be quite eye opening.

Obviously, if this is correct, it will help folks with their SEO efforts tremendously.

Of course, if you are trying to determine where to submit your sites, or where to trade traffic with, and are looking to get quality traffic, this will help you as well.

I'm curious to know what everyone else sees with this. Am I reading it correctly?

Yeah it's a good tool, more trustworthy than alexa!

I'm not convinced that it's "da bomb," but it is another tool in our tool bag to help as we try to figure things out in this great world wide web of confusion.
