  The successful anthropic prediction of the cosmological constant depends
crucially on the assumption of a flat prior distribution. However, previous
calculations in simplified landscape models showed that the prior distribution
is staggered, suggesting a conflict with anthropic predictions. Here we
analytically calculate the full distribution, including the prior and anthropic
selection effects, in a toy landscape model with a realistic number of vacua,
$N \sim 10^{500}$. We show that it is possible for the fractal prior
distribution we find to behave as an effectively flat distribution in a wide
class of landscapes, depending on the regime of parameter space. Whether or not
this possibility is realized depends on presently unknown details of the
landscape.
