What's the best way to measure someone's traffic on their website. I've used semrush but not sure how accurate that is compared to other tools. Which is most reliable?
 
No more alexa anymore :(

I was using Alexa to see websites traffic and keywords. easy to track.
Even long before Alexa was shut down, I have been an avid user of Similarweb as I find it more reliable (I am not talking about 100% accuracy).
 
How about using similarweb.com ?
That's my GoTo. Better than Alexa, in my opinion.
Similarweb has data for only larger sites, what I do is I take semrush numbers and I multiply them by 3 to get an estimate of a site's monthly traffic.

Wow. Never heard of this trick. But how did you come to the conclusion of 3x as a constant?

Why 3x? Can you explain
 
Ahrefs is my go-to tool
None of them are accurate. It's usually anywhere from 2-4X
 
All are estimates and are super unreliable. Haven't found a solution that consistently estimates close enough to real numbers. Out of my top 10 sites traffic wise, only 2 are close to real numbers according to ahrefs, only 1 per semrush, 0 moz, and similarweb 0.
