Consider the fact that hatches aren't the most popular vehicle in america. Then make that a $30,000 hatchback and give it a 6 speed. The result is that not many are made since there isn't a high demand for them. DSG is a "larger seller" than the stick, especially a newer one.
As for the TDI's I really am surprised to hear you found a lot of them with low mileage. Usually they have high mileage and there isn't a lot of them. Maybe it is just the area you are in? IDK.
