It's very normal for exit relays to pick up *much *more traffic than middle
or guard. Because exit relays have to deal with the abuse complaints of Tor
users, there are much fewer exit relays than middle and guard:

Even though there is plenty of bandwidth in the Tor network (
http://rougmnvswfsmd4dq.onion/bandwidth-flags.html), the sheer amount of
exit vs non-exit relays causes exit relays to have much more traffic.
