Are the least common numbers less likely to come up?
No. Every number in the pool has the same chance in every draw. On average each main number has been drawn 116.5 times in these 1,146 draws; a few numbers always end up below that average by chance alone, and which ones changes as more draws are added.
Every draw is independent: the machine has no memory, so a number that has come up often, rarely or not for a long time has exactly the same chance as any other in the next draw. These figures describe what has happened, not what will.
