Systems and methods for scoring a domain web traffic based on DNS traffic requests received at an authoritative name server to resolve the domain name. A request to resolve the domain name is received at an authoritative name server. A counter, such as a server counter or a hit counter, for the domain name is incremented based on the received request. A score, such as a domain traffic score or a domain rank, is calculated based upon a count of the counter. Calculating the score may also include applying a weighting factor to the counters based on information about a requesting set of resolvers and other domains/websites that may be linking and driving traffic to the domain whose traffic score is being calculated. Examples of relevant set of resolvers information may include location, traffic levels, traffic type and architecture of the set of resolvers. 1. An automated method for scoring a query , comprising:receiving at a DNS name server a query comprising one or more character strings;incrementing one or more server counters for the one or more character strings; andcalculating a traffic score for the query based upon the one or more server counters,wherein, calculating the traffic score includes applying a weighting factor to the one or more server counters based on information about a requesting set of resolvers.2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more server counters is limited to one count for a particular requesting set of resolvers in a predetermined period of time.3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising incrementing a hit counter each time the DNS name server receives a query claim 2 ,wherein, calculating the traffic score is further based upon the hit counter.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weighting factor is based on a geographical location of the requesting set of resolvers.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the weighting factor is based on at least one of a network traffic level and a network traffic type of the requesting set of ...
