They're filled all the time because these servers have been around since Team Fortress 2 came out and were some of, if not the first set of 32 slot servers. And there are also some really skilled players that frequent the servers which presents an enjoyable challenge.
Using default maps helps also. People don't like to download maps/sounds in TF2. Vanilla TF2 ftw.

One of the latest valve updates seemed to have capped rate at some low value. It's something Valve knows about and is looking at.
