Alexa is not important in these days. high ranking in serp is the main factor that you can get high traffic.

Alexa rankings can be manipulated outside the top 100 000.
If you are looking to improve your alexa rank, install the search status extension in firefox, and enable alexa rank when viewing your own sites.

All of the tools for SEO is not that accurate including Alexa but you can treat Alexa as your guide. I'm not encouraging you to stop using Alexa, it may help you on many things like if your rankings on Alexa dropped down, it will be your go signal to work hard and double up your task.

To make the long story short.. Just use Alexa as a guide but don't rely on it totally.
