I think that now the third movie has been and gone with relatively little hype, there's nothing to excite fans into... well, fanaticism. A lot of members joined with the movie craze, but if they're not a big fan of the books, they're losing interest and moving on to new things. I noticed that on a lot of sites that hadn't been set up to focus on the books, there was much less activity in the past few months.

Other than that, it's just a timezone thing. I know a lot more American Lotr fans than any other nationality, and if you adjust your timing to match theirs, there's a whole lot more activity going on.
