Hitwise gave a presentation in Canberra about this a few weeks ago

They claim to measure web use via cooperating ISPs and to come up
with more accurate results than conventional media ratings. Of course
they must still be extrapolating to some extent.
ps: I was surprised that Online Opinion rated so well. But then I
give them advice on their web design, as I am on the advisory board
for the publication, so I guess that is why it has worked out so well
