    I'm wondering why those ip's aren't distributing their queries across
    all the roots.

Not all resolvers are equal. Some lock on on servers, others don't

    This is quite interesting. F-root is also the most anycasted of this
    subset...  The next highest anycasted member has the least amount of bad
    TLD queries. Seems to be more variability with more highly anycasted
    servers. I wonder why...

If you look at this,

You'll note that C & M has less instances then K, but more of this
traffic. To me it seems too little data conclude anything.

    Do you have the number of anycast instances for all 13 roots?

As far as I know public information is available at
