Seeds and peers are simply what is available. You can't 'increase' them - just hope that someone who has the complete file (or the missing parts) comes online .

The info is in the .torrent file you downloaded (which contains the trackers). You could add more trackers manually, but there's now ay of knowing what files are available via any particular tracker

As @Rhubarb explains, it all depends on how many people are Seeding the file your trying too download.

Try different times of the day, for me living in the UK, I find downloading during the night turns up more Seeds.

You have to consider not everyone Uploads/Seeds 24/7.
