blitz ranking

In the blitz ranking statistics, there are more 1100 rated players than 1000 rated players.

A relative ranking seems to be not valid if it is easier to play 1100 than 1000.

What is the reason for this?

you try playing those 800-1000 rated players and you will quickly find out why that is

Why should there always be less players with a higher ranking? Does not make sense to me.

Because for the majority of the new registered players on Chess.com the starting provisional rating is 1200. There are a lot of new players that probably lost just 1 game and left, making them fall in the 1100 rating (but still provisional).
