There are two counterpoints, though:

1. 32-bit starts to hit issues at under 1 GiB, and has to use highmem (with all its associated costs) to handle 1 GiB or more.
2. While Amazon micro and small instances have less than 2 GiB RAM, both support 64-bit platforms; even on the micro instance, with 617 MiB RAM, you could still use a 64-bit OS if that gave you an advantage.
