That assumes that the least populated server is, by association of it being least popular with us, is also least popular with the rest of the FFXIV community.
A does not always mean B, basically. Wutai has a low tally, for example, but I am sure many people also presume that the community at large -- I'm not saying pre-existing guilds/linkshells/forums, but FF fans in general -- will make that a mid/high-populace server due to its FFVII affiliation.
I'm glad to hear that A doesn not always mean B, otherwise our alphabet would be in trouble.
But you also have to consider that we do have a vast number of people (voters), and even those who do not simply jump on the bandwagon and vote for the most popular one, vote for one they like. meaning that while it's not a garentee, on a smaller scale the votes do reflect the popularity of those servers based on names.
