I do agree that some more explanation about hove the estimates are are needed
For sure the Alexa Traffic Rank and Alexa traffic data they quote and use for estimating domain value and revenue from addsa is well known and used by businesses. They use Whois records that is well known and reliable source too.
The main unknown is the estimation itself
I tried to find some info about it but it seems its not so easy.
If someone finds some more reliable source I would be very curious to have a look! Please share
Of course it only applies to sites that decide to use advertising - I dont understand why bringing the topic of sites that clearly do not use it??
If there is estimation for wikipedia or mangaupdates it only shows what the site could have earned (potentially) If they decided to post comercial adds.

Mangaupdates.com receives about 190,325 visits and 588,103 (3 per visitor) pageviews per day which should earn about $2,058.36/day from content advertising revenue...
I posted the earning number for mangafox before - they post adds - but yes - it needs more info about how it was done before being taken for good approximation - that is very true - I got overly excited quoting it as a fact. Thank you Baltha for pointing it out!
