URL redirect through Alexa may decrease google page rank but not sure about it yet. Ask your friends to brows through your site with Alexa toolbar installed. However, major antivirus programms detect the toolbar as spyware/virus and would tend to block the installation process. So I guess less and less people are using Alexa toolbar as any new user when sees warning from Antivirus software, will freak out and wont even bother to install it.

It will increase if you have more visitors. For me i think you need to work on traffic rather than increase Alexa Rank. It will increase if you have more visitors.

I don't see why I would want to redirect through alexa (or risk it for that matter) when I have the alexa stats badge on every page anyway.

In this case if alexa does a 301 redirect from each url there will not be any problem but if it just redirects then, I am sure we'll have a problem. When I checked the redirect it with this tool http://www.webconfs.com/redirect-check.php it says the redirect is search engine friendly... but I am afraid of using it. :) To have a simple proof, according to google our site should have a good interlinks and navigation to distribute page rank among the pages.

Like Martin questions, I'm not sure exactly if there would be a pagerank issue by replacing all links which is why i just stuck to the main name heading link of the blog.
