        Moz.com is my second favorite competitive link finding tool, but I used a Windows SEO program (dont think I'm allowed to mention the name.), and it was fantastic. Third favorite is plain old Google.

        The program I used would  crawl for hours and hours and also have the database from other users.  I found all kinds of incoming links to competitors sites I never would have thought existed.

        But yes the tool here works and is worth using. (OpensiteExplorer)

        You can also get a very, very basic backlink profile on Google by searching: link:www.site.com  which for me brings up 314 sites that all link to the site www.site.com.  Bing|Yahoo (Microsoft bought out the search part of Yahoo so the results are the same.), has same feature as well but their database has way less sites but still for sure worth using as I sometimes find they don't hold back as many links like Google does.  (Bing uses same syntax as above:  link:www.moz.com)

        Wait nevermind I take that back.  Bing now has whole tools dedicated to finding backlinks.  Nice http://www.bing.com/toolbox/link-explorer   Remember dealing with them you are also dealing with Yahoo.  As terrible as both the sites are, they still have a huge part of the search market.  Personally I think someone needs to stepup and make another search engine. (Maybe Apple?) that uses their own algorithm.  I'd try Bings new backlinks tool!!

        As for Google they hold back most incoming links, but here are some for the site you posted:
