So along with that loss they are even starting to lose these old installs as analyzers as peeps upgrade their systems to Vista and so on.. So their analysis value is dropping faster then installs, hence lose lose scenario.

You notice the sites that really kick ass are the ones with webmaster followings, such as AFF, which not only has billions of surfers and links
but webmasters promoting them, so alexa see these links more..
also TGP's that take submits.. as more webmasters are submitting..
