From the Christian Science Monitor:

"Today Craigslist is the 37th most popular Internet site in the world, according to Alexa.com, which tracks online traffic. It receives more than 15 million unique visitors per month, people who are placing classified ads or looking for things – jobs, household items, information, tickets, personal connections, and much more.

With a few exceptions, placing ads and responding to them is free. And since Craigslist operates as 450 local listing services in all 50 states and 50 countries, whatever you're looking for is probably going to be nearby."

Then:

"According to Alexa, YouTube is the fifth most popular US website; Craigslist is No. 9."



[ok we have an unexplained variance here but 37th or 9th place out of 20 million websites are both good.]

I would take anythng Alexa says with a grain of salt. Not saying the CraigsList is that popular or even more popular, Alexa's data collection methods are based on their toolbars being on your system.
