Just look at the numbers Koda's biggest seller single sold 390,685 copies (not millions like ayu, Namie and Utada Hikaru singleS)

Physically yes, but digital Kuu is far bigger in sales than Namie altogether (from the overal sales we know from recochoku: Kuu is around 35 million, while Namie is something around 15 million).
And btw. Kuu is at around 15 million physically.
Like gustavo said, they were popular at total different times, so their sales pattern is different.
