If they've agreed with the settlement/what the DoJ are doing, they're not going to have an overwhelming urge to write in. If the DoJ was coming out in favour of publishers, which people disagreed with, I'm sure you'd find a boat load of letters making their way to the DoJ (after a period of internet/paper calls for action).
People tend to react in greater numbers when they disagree with something. In addition, I doubt many people are even aware of the comments period. At best they'll have read headlines in the papers saying ebook prices may fall or amazon may be handed a monopoly or publishers under fire from DoJ (take your pick/make up your own). Either way, I'd be surprised if more than a tiny fraction of those who read about the DoJ case know anything more than a superficial overview and have no idea/nor care about the comments period.
