I think fansub popularity is pretty indicative of the DVD popularity. If you look at the torrents for files you will see that.

Older anime's with solid stories that won't make it in the U.S. run with a max of around 500 dowloads at any one time and thats only for the first day or so.

Animes (lets just say Naruto when it wasn't liscensed) that are popular are getting upwards of 20k downloads at a time and that maintains at about a 10-15k level for a few days.

I think the only way to answer your question is to decide at what point an anime has become a 'hit' in the fansub community?
