People seem to love to jump to the conclusion of tracker malfunction the second they can't join a game. A word to the wise; check your own connection (and others') thoroughly before suggesting alternatives to the tracker.
It has been going up and down all day. My connection is fine

Volition hosts the tracker that is true.
If folks are unable to connect to the tracker it could be a result of DNS problems. Couple months ago DNS servers world wide were hosing up for hours at a time.
I have suffered in real life for the past couple years, now its your turn!

1. volition was bought out by thq, they just use this other company for other purposes, like frog said to host master servers.
The only way that an alternative tracker would work would be for it to be hosted by a site like this one.
You know one that's address won't be changing any time soon.
I know I have the file to do it somewhere, well at least I think I do. I just don't know where it is or what the actual file name was called.
As far as the tracker being down, it's not. It's working perfectly...Right now.

You do know that anyone can grab a redirect URL for their IP right?
