My friend Dixon Jones from Receptional has given me access to his link analysis tool and graciously allowed the readers of the Link Spiel to use it as well.
Receptional's Link Analysis Tool compares sites and bring back link totals for: trusted links, news sites, .edu, .gov, DMOZ and Wikipedia (yawn) as well a long list of social network sites like
del.icio.us, digg.com, propeller.com, stumbleupon.com, blinklist.com, kaboodle.com, reddit.com, fark.com, slashdot.org, and newsvine.com .
Want to try it? Password and username is thelinkspiel Have fun.

Very nice! And very generous of both you and Dixon. Thank you both!
I tried the tool but am not sure about the output. What does a trusted link mean, or a social network link.
It would certainly help if you could click to see the origin of the backlink.
Moreover, there is more info to obtain. My tested sites had deeplinks which were not recognized.
My favorite backlink tools are from linkvendor and linkdiagnosis.
The added value of linkdiagnosis, and probably also receptional's tool is that the backlinks are sorted in some way.
So summarizing to receptional. Gather more links by using multiple sources and make the backlinks clickable and transparent.
interesting.
What the definition of a Trusted Link? What are the parameter.
Thanks for the feedback.
The "Trust" number is the sum of governnment, educational, Dmoz, News and Wikipedia links. We haven't made up our minds about whether sicail network links are good or bad yet (probably some of each).
"Gather more links by using multiple sources"
Watch this space. Although if you have links missing, my guess is that the sites doing the linking have either got spidering issues of their own or are new or - and here's by best guess - have fallen fould of some quality controls somewhere along the way.
"make the backlinks clickable and transparent."
Technically, we are already there, but there are some issues with doing this in a public domain at the moment.
We hope to add functionality in the future, but our consulting clients need to come first of course.
@Dixon: 'our consulting clients need to come first': logical ofcourse, but what happens after that? is this tool going to be an invite only or something similar?
We don't know yet :)
Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
Great tool thanks for sharing! Is there an opinion or information elsewhere on which links are the most valuable from a link building perspective:
Homepage Links,Deep Links,Government Links,Educational Links,News Links
Social Network Links,Dmoz Links,Wikipedia Links
Thanks for sharing this tool!It's really helpful in my linkbuilding task. By the way,how can we have access to the "site analysis" tool? is it free?
Thanks in advance!
I#ll try to get a password for you for that tool today :)
