This link is somewhat vague, but basically, Vgchartz has a lot of people ages 18-34. So the average person here is fairly young.

ok, how in the world do they generate demographics information like age or sex from IPs?

I assume they're going by what we put in our profiles. The information does reflect what you see in this site.

do you really think they wrote a script to parse the websites profile pages? I'm sure it is quite possible, but that seems odd as I always figured Alexa was just a completely automated website. Not only that, but they wouldn't have a proper representation of guests.

you're right. it is completely automated. They get their traffic statistics from internet users who download an attachment that tracks where they go on the web and sends the data to alexa. I don't know for sure because I don't use it, but I assume they have a place where you put your age and other info in your attachment and it sends the data to them as well as the traffic stats.

OT: Just turned 19. Been gaming since we got our first computer when I was 8. (My parents weren't, and still aren't very interested in new tech.
