What we today call the Persian Wars occurred 499-449 BCE, a century before Alexander.
Alexander invaded and captured the Persian Empire 334-324 BCE.
While some casualty figures are mentioned for a couple of battles, we have no overall figures of the number of battle casualties or the number of civilian men women and children killed as a side effect, or the numbers who starved to death as a result of ravaged lands. It was probably in the millions - glorious victories indeed.
