Ahrefs Site Explorer - new tool for backlinks analysis

[Ahrefs]

The new tool for backlinks analysis is available at Ahrefs since march 2011. It provides lots of useful backlinks statistics for your and your competitors' (or everyone else's) sites.
Distinguishing feature of this tool is an independent database refreshed in realtime (circa 6 billion external and 25 billion internal links added each day). Ahrefs.com uses custom crawler to fill this database and is not affiliated with other search engines or similar services.
You're welcome to try new possibilities on any URLs you are interested in!
Ahrefs.com provides several free and paid service offers depending on the depth of information being analyzed.

For subscribed users there appeared a new type of report - Raw Export Report. It enables exporting up to 5 million links for any domains. Users with Starter Subscription may export 1 million links, those with Standard Subscription - 5 million links every month over a subscription period.

New free option is in the pipeline - trial usage of all paid services. You can build 3 standard reports for 500 links for any domain (not necessarily yours) for free, as well as to export 10000 links through rawexport. These limits are enough to analyse the efficiency of reports and export functioning. If you like the result you get and want more info, you may subscribe and get considerably higher limits.

We've been planning to launch API in the end of August, but already now we get many letters with API request and in connection with the fact that Yahoo Site Explorer API is going to be shut down, we've decided to launch version 0.1, which may be used right now.

Current API version enables:
1.to see links on the indicated domain, directory or URL
2.to see info about pages on a domain or in a directory

More advanced options will come, as promised, in August. To read more about API 0.1, follow this link - ahrefs.com/api/

Is the tool still very much in beta? I see alot of backlinks from sources where there is not an actual link.

There was a link and then it disappeared, but we didn't manage to notice that. We go over about a billion pages per day, soon bot will find out these links no longer exist.
Beta means that active developing is still in process. We step by step add new functions to ahrefs.com and still have many in store. Those who need info on backlinks are actively using all advantages of our database.

I'm pretty sure I am seeing backlinks from sources where there never was a link. I could be wrong, though.

I first thought this is the usual spam but the tool looks pretty decent actually.
Worth taking a look.
