@AnantGuru I assume that it's because only anonymous players can play other anonymous players. (and/or perhaps players searching for casual games?)

But my guess is either:
1: there isn't many anonymous players on Lichess?
2: the time of day/week when you play anonymous is when others are at work, sleep ect.?
3: ultra bullet is unpopular for other anonymous players?
4: perhaps another reasons I can't think of?

Have you considered Zen mode? As an alternative? It's not the same as anonymous (it doesn't hide your name from your opponents, but it hides the opponents name and rating)

If you wanna give Zen mode a try, you can change it in the settings from the link below:
