I don't think we are alone, but we might be alone in observable and explorable part of the Universe, as sapience hardly is necessary for life, I suspect there is sort of a pyramid - a lot of worlds with some kind of self-replicators (that is - simple life), but very, very few worlds with intelligent life, perhaps even fewer with technological civilisation, and even fewer at the stage of technology where we are or higher. Besides, even if we could communicate, what's the point? Speed of light is still the limit. Sure, we can say "hallo!", but that's about it, no real way to talk.
