That doesn't appear to hold true with Traveller worlds. Taking worlds with a population of 10-99 for example, the distribution is actually somewhat tilted toward the higher end of that range.

Of course, the interesting twist is that actual distributions are bottom-heavy within each range -- there will be more worlds with 60-65M inhabitants than 65-70, because (as you've said) as the pop goes up, the frequency goes down. Developing and applying a power-law model that fits the data is left as an exercise. :)
