  Get certified by Alexa requires javascript. Will there ever be a plug-in for WordPress.com hosted sites?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No I don’t think that likely at all. There is no FTP access and no plugin capability on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

  There is no upgrade you can purchase that changes anything at all stated here http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ FTP access, and plugins are available only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.

  Read them all. I also know that as themes are added, widgets that were not available before on WordPress.com hosted sites are now available within certain themes. Alexa has a plug-in that I have used on WordPress.org sites, much like the former plug-in for twitter (a feature that was unavailable on WordPress.com sites only three years ago).
  I was simply asking if there are any near-future plans for theme(s) with an Alexa widget.
  This seems like it would be a useful thing for increasing traffic to WordPress.com sites.

  There have been zero announcements to that effect. Moreover, as this is a multusiser blogging platform whereon we bloggers cannot access metadata at all, I state again that IMO this is unlikely to be happening at all, let alone, any time soon.
