I don't think there's any sense of direction in the jumps. Hence the name "Drunkard's Walk". Given the nature of Doug's moving through universes, being "closer" in any sense isn't really gonna help him. There may be a pattern to things, but that's up to Bob.
Also, as a reminder, while DW1 and DW2 are sequential, Bob's said that not all the steps are going to be documented - there are going to be a number of rather vanilla worlds in which he simply spends time finding the next gate song, and then moves on.
I'm also guessing that at some level the Walk is the Universe's way of "billing" him for his gifts - he has a certain amount of stuff he needs to get done before he can actually make it home...
