My personal guess is, that in the end of book 7 a big battle will 
take place, in which every (or mearly every) character is involved. 
That means a lot of characters could die, and it wouldn't happen all 
the time.

My guess is (only main characters):

Survivors: Ron, Hermione, Fred, George, Arthur, McGonagall, Percy, 
Bill, Luna
Not sure: Harry, Ginny, Neville, Molly, Snape  
Dead: Lupin, Moody, Dumbledore, Trelawney, Voldemort, Peter, Lucius, 
Draco, Charlie (the IMO most uninteresting Weasley. I hope it is him, 
if a Weasley dies)  

The character, who is currently on the topp of my "Will probably die" 
list, is Seamus. His first DA lesson was interrupted by Dobby's 
warning, that means he is the only non Slytherin student, (out of 
those who are more than just a name to the readers) who hasn't got a 
good DADA lesson in OOTP. Therefore I don't think it looks very good 
for him.
