did some of the kids get less than the others?

It seems equal to me.

I think Cindy and Bobby feel shortchanged, in comparison to Greg and Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.

Wikipedia has a list of Brady Bunch episodes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Brady_Bunch_episodes), with summaries. Greg is mentioned 139 times; Cindy only 62.

Sam - 28
Tiger - 8

I would have been on board with that.

To me, each episode normally had a kid or two who had the episode as their story but the others always got a good look in unlike the two youngest kids on the Partridge Family. I don't know if it was, but it always felt very balanced to me. I think Alice featured the least overall.

In comparison to The Partridge Family, The Brady Bunch feels much more balanced. But we all know how unbalanced TPF was.

This is what I thought as well.
