Easy, no illustration like "pure" light novel(for some people, the difference that divide between a LN and your average novel is just this) and setting is very much like your average western detective novel(the "client" come asking for help instead of the protagonist mysteriously keep stumbling upon a case, reader's avatar doing all the clue searching and idea throwing instead of the main detective).

Well his Individual volumes sold pretty much like the other popular series like OreImo and BakaTest give or take a few thousand.

But the sheer number of books he put out easily overwhelms the competition and putting him at the top.
Well yes, but to be able to put that amount of volume without letting his writing quality "significantly" degraded is something in itself. Usually author will either get a writer block if they have to keep the quality of their writing(Haruhi) or the quality of their writing will go down, sometimes from overusing the same plot advancement(most harem title, arguably Hidan no Aria).
