Yes, but you need to get a feeling about it's rankings. If Alexa is above 1 million, than it is useless. Only geeks have Alexa toolbar installed, so a flower site can have 1000 visitors per day and Alexa rank of 1 million, while webmaster site can have 100 unique visitors per day and Alexa rank of 150.000.

Alexa ranking is primarily based on traffic, and traffic can be easily faked. If you use traffic exchange, your alexa rank will improve. However, traffic from traffic exchange do no convert, therefore, there will be no sales or ad clicks.
If you want to flip your website, high alexa rank can help you. I have alexa toolbar on my browser and I rely on alexa rank to take a note on how my website is performing.

The Alexa ranking of websites can help us in our evaluation of the other sites particularly with reference to the traffic that they get. However I have read in some discussions that the statistics in Alexa is not up to date and some are even dated one month ago. Nevertheless the figures corresponding to the sites can still be useful as an estimated number that is not really far from the current figures.
