I need to get an estimate for the number of unique visitors, given a domain name. I want to use this value in a calculation, so unfortunately a traffic rank, as in an Alexa rank will not work.

Is there any way, using AWIS or any other such web service to get an estimate of the number of visitors? It doesn't have to be particularly accurate.
