[PHP] GetAlexaTrafficRank

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/besthostingforums.com

The rank is calculated using a combination of average daily visitors to
besthostingforums.com and pageviews on besthostingforums.com over the past 3 months. The site with the highest combination of visitors and pageviews is ranked #1.

That's why the regex fails.
Here's a fix:

function GetAlexaTrafficRank($domain)
{
        $source = file_get_contents("http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/$domain#");
        $regex = '#([0-9,]+)\s*</div>\s*<div class="label">Global Rank#';
        preg_match($regex, $source, $match);
        $newresult = str_replace("number", "", $match[1]);
        return $newresult;
}
echo "KWWHunction's Alexa Traffic Rank is: ".GetAlexaTrafficRank("besthostingforums.com").".";
