It is a fixed amount, for example, here is the current reward fund, according to @banjo:
Total Reward Fund: 716,658 STEEM (Worth: $3,150,429 internally; $3,923,737 on Bittrex)
It is my understanding that this amount is for 7 days of rewards. It fluctuates but typically stays within the same order of magnitude no matter how many people vote
As to the actual mechanics of it, I don't know... Programmers write code and the blockchain complies. I don't have a working knowledge of the "how it works" just concept level.
There is nothing we can actually know, my friend.
