For what it's worth:

In[1]:= $Version

Out[1]= "8.0 for Microsoft Windows (64-bit) (February 23, 2011)"

data = {{15000, 0.154}, {25000, 0.283}, {35000, 0.402}, {50000, 0.55},
   {75000,
         0.733}, {100000, 0.843}};

In[3]:= nlm01 = NonlinearModelFit[data,
      CDF[ParetoDistribution[khat, ahat], $x], {khat, ahat}, $x];

In[4]:= nlm01["BestFitParameters"]

Out[4]= {khat -> 18243.5, ahat -> 0.902423}

Cheers
