I agree with this, I think the best approach is crowd-sourced and dynamic list.
It's not enough to just use the top 100 sites on Alexa, this would also have the negative effect of cumulatively artificially increasing the popularity of those sites.
I think additionally it needs to have everyone using the system anonymously share their true web queries, perhaps with a torrent or blockchain like system, and all of these would be added and used as part of the white noise.
Thus, the more people that use it, the more diverse and less useful the data would become.
