Do not worry about it and there is nothing you can do. Most of them make that information up and base your site value on the amount of page views they think you get. People know that this is not the value of your business.

There are tons of way to make semi-informed guesses but they are highly skewed to certain types of websites. Google Analytics stats are not used for this and Google does not share it with anyone.

For most common site that gathers stats is alexa.com. It does so using a toolbar that people install in their browser. That toolbar gather stats about browsing and then the stats are extrapolated from those. A huge number of sites actually use Alexa's results and then extrapolate from that further (such as guess valuation from page views). As you can guess, the further removed from Alexa, the wilder the guesses!
