You clearly weren't around a few months ago when this was the talk of the town in these parts. Pretty much, every likely and unlikely scenario was explored, including unpopular normal servers and servers with less traffic. Only servers with extremely high player connections and extremely high player-disconnects-with-minimal-playtimes will receive the lowest of the low scores.
As was said hundreds of time, the delist system is meant to catch the worst of the worst. There is no way to view your server ranking since that would just create a new level of epeen comparing. You don't need to worry about your ranking unless you are using questionable practices like redirect servers and/or fake clients. I'm also pretty sure that Steam Support doesn't read this list so they probably aren't aware of the delisting issue, so I'm not surprised they don't know about this stuff. Oh and by the way, it's not automatic. Servers are manually delisted.
