There was no PvP in 1.0 so that has little to do with it. But it's the same reason in most games the large ugly-ish race is always underrepresented. Also the fact that they were only able to be males also limits them. Galka in FFXI were the least populous race, as were Roegadyn in 1.0.
They attract certain people, but they're not as universally aesthetically pleasing like the majority of the other races. It actually pretty much boggles my mind that anyone could not see how obvious it is as to why they're less popular.
They're not humans, they aren't pretty elves, they aren't catgirl/boy tropes. Even lalafell have higher populations because of their abundance of cute stereotypes. So the gritty hulking race is clearly going to be the least played out of the bunch.
