We estimate the strong coupling constant from the perturbative expansion of
the plaquette. The scale is set by the 2S-1S and 1P-1S splittings in botto
monium which are computed in NRQCD on dynamical gauge configurations with n
(f) = 2 degenerate Wilson quarks at intermediate masses. We have increased
the statistics of our spectrum calculation in order to reliably extrapolate
in the sea-quark mass. We find a value of alpha(<(MS)over bar>)(m(Z)) = 0.
1118(26) which is somewhat lower than previous estimates within NRQCD.
