You make several erroneous assumptions:
1) that every reincarnating soul is in circulation all the time. The souls incarnated on Earth (or elsewhere in the universe - it's a big place. See next point) could represent only a tiny fraction of all the souls that exist. Maybe after you die you have to wait a while (like buying a handgun...)
2) that every soul is reincarnating only on Earth (or, at least, that Earth-based souls remain on Earth...). There could be billions and billions of inhabited planets, and souls could move from one to another easily between incarnations.
3) that souls, once human, stay that way. Depending on the version of this you ascribe to, if you mess up this time around you could come back as a bug. There are more insects on Earth than all other animals combined.
4) that souls are distinct and unique - maybe there's just one soul, and that one soul reincarnates through everybody (time would have to be irrelevant, but that's not so hard to believe). Maybe souls merge and divide into new and interesting combinations for each incarnation. Who can know for sure?
That's all I got for now. Hope that helps.

Someone does not become reincarnated immediately as part of the same person, their spirit becomes part of a global consciousness and from this a new spirit comprising many states of being are born. Imagine the global consiousness is a lump of clay and your soul is a small handful of clay, on death the two are reunited and moulded together. When a new consiousness needs to be created it is fomed from out of the global lump of clay.

prove that theres nothign to reincarnate from? prove that there isnt another planet in the universe that holds life on it? prove that theres a planet with life on it thats dying out? prove that there isnt a "limbo" like stage where souls go when theres nothing to reincarnate into? perhaps there are more souls then there are population? open your mind a little. not everything is solely about the human population on earth.

Animals and other creatures have souls too.
Try counting all these just on the Earth.
Some must be able to progress to human form.
You will never disprove the existence of souls, especially using maths.

A soul is created very rarely. When it is created it is used over and over again. More population then ever before means more new souls.

In Buddhism, the universe is infinite and all things are interrelated.
So, there would not be a fixed number of anything.
Including consciousness.

can even consider!

Well, if reincarnation exists, how did anyone get here to begin with?
We just keep adding new people, hon.
