I suggest you ...

Allow alerts to be tied to specific pages (and indicate what pages caused alerts for general ones)

I'd love to be able to create an alert and tie it to a specific page or directory on my site. So a "# of visitors" alert tied to a particular story that we've been doing a slow campaign on would be a nice way to get some confirmation. Another use case would be for pages which require significant amount of server work prior to serving. I'd like to set a pretty high server load time threshold for those pages.

Along the same lines, the "user/server page load" and "page goes down" alerts could be made a lot more useful by including the URL of the page that triggered the alert. It would allow me to make a more informed decision about whether or not to get out of bed at 3am (since I *know* some pages involve heavier lifting by the server or have a large payload for the user). Actually, it'd be great to know what the highest-density page is when a "total visitors" alert triggers as well, since it's more typical that one or two pages is responsible for crossing an alert threshold, not the site as a whole.
