I seriously doubt that Alexa rankings at all meaningful for Chinese
page views. I'm not sure if it is still the case, but I seem to recall
that at some point the Alexa toolbar was only available in English,
that would explain why wikipedia.org does better - people that don't
speak good English are more likely to use the Chinese sites and less
likely to use the Alexa toolbar.
