I hope it is only a week, I just took my DATs on 10/22. Three weeks would put me in the middle of november and I can really kiss my interviews befor 12/1 goodbye. Actually I would be very surprised to get any before 12/1 already.
Most, if not all, schools have the capability to go online to get your scores as soon as you are done with the exam. I think the 3 week thing is the official hard copy..
If you have any doubts about your scores being sent out, call right away. ADA had a computer glitch and my scores were not sent out immediately. Over a month after my DAT, I called them and they said that they hadn't sent it because I hadn't told them any schools which was not true (?1*#@!). They were able to take care of everything, but in all it took almost weeks from the time I took the DAT.

Your logic seems sound. I believe schools are already booked with interviews into January (figure one week for Thanksgiving and 2 weeks for Christmas where they don't do any interivews at all).
