I really think the meme goes mostly off of word usage - like certain words or kinds of words, sentence length, etc. It's a very rough approximation. And anyway, King sells! And of the bestsellers you could get, King's not bad - one of my friends got Dan Brown. And I keep getting James Joyce - who reads him? I don't know, having never read him, but I'm betting the answer is "jerks." The only exceptions I got were Margaret Atwood, Vladimir Nabokov, and Leo Tolstoy. idk!
