Is it possible to track which links redirected to my site? For example if it’s a short URL http://alturl.com/6rp7w that redirects to http://www.mysite.com would I be able to track http://alturl.com/6rp7w?

It depends on whether or not that is the URL passed as the referrer. If you have a public site you can test with, set up a small url and point it to a test php page and put this:
If the URL is the same, then the referring URL is passing the small URL and you can track it. If the referrer shows up as
http://alturl.com… then chances are you will not be able to track the actual URL.
