Alexa is a difficult engine to go through because it's primarily based out of dmoz.org which is also incredibly hard to get through, mostly because it's all human-based and it takes up to 3 months (or so) just to review sites before they're added. Not to mention if you submit to the wrong directory you don't even get in. It's a tricky directory in that sense, thus making Alexa just as tricky. My suggestion to you would be to submit your site to a few different categories in dmoz and then wait, you can't really do too much else... make sure the content you submit to dmoz is current and saturated with accuracy and you should be good. Hope this helps
