The whole "For One Hundred Years.... blah blah blah" speech? Well remember that each time the systemic anomoly occurs, their purpose is to return to the source and reinsert thier code so it can "reboot". At that time they remove x number of people to repopulate zion, because zion has been destroyed. So I think everyone looking for a new "One" may have a long wait ahead of them, because it's not an overnight occurance. When a "One" dies or completes it's task, the next "One" doesn't just immediatly pop up. It's an anomoly formed by the remainder of an equation that continues to build over time until it results in a "One".
The "equation" that was unbalanced, was unbalanced because of the "problem of choice". Humanity needed a choice even at a "subconscious level" to be able to leave the Matrix. Now, that equation is balanced because of the nature of the truce, each person has a real choice to leave if they want. Therefore the "One" program is obsolete. That being said the RSI of Sarah Edmonton may actually be Neo. Not the next "eventuality of the anomoly". That is what Morpheus meant when he said that he could be anyone and not even know who he is. That this girl is actually a "fake" RSI of Thomas Anderson/Neo.Of course, this interpretation sort of leads to a question about the Cypherites and their goals. Their agenda doesn't really make any sense. If they truly want to eliminate all possibility of people ever becoming Awakened, then the Matrix program is crippled with that equation becoming permanently unbalanced. So effectively their success means the end of the human race.

However my reasoning for the chances of another One sooner than previous Matrix versions is that Neo broke the pattern. Instead of doing what the One usually did, Neo made a decision based off love. I see anything possible now that Zion was not destroyed this time. Perhaps it has confused the system in a way? I don't know.

(Basically, the equation becomes more and more unbalanced when people go against the odds and deny the programming, hence the Anomaly appears and needs to be re-inserted to the source for a re-start of the Matrix.)
