If you're ultimately using the exit-node for both, then you'll really only end up measuring what is friendly to the Tor Browser itself instead of Tor overall.

Most sites block by IP (or IP range), so a direct connection using the exit node's IP should give you very similar results to a Tor circuit using the exit node's IP. T
