Here is another approach which may give some light on estimating your desired quantity (the number of sets of $n$ numbers $r_i$ which are mutually coprime and whose product is less than $p$). I don't see the significance of $p$ being prime, and will replace $p$ with $m^n$.
Let $R$ be a finite subset of the primes, let $P$ be the product of the primes in $R$ and let $q_m(R)$ count those multiples of $P$ at most $m$ which are $R$-smooth. Let $S$ be a partition of $n$ parts of some finite subset of primes, with parts called $R_i$. The number of ways of choosing a number from each part is at least $\prod_i q_m(R_i)$ to get a set of $n$ coprime numbers whose product is at most $m^n$. This can be tweaked to change the $m$ to $m_i$ whose product is at most $m^n$, but then one does some double counting if insufficient care is taken.
Now a lower bound for your count can be written using the notation above (where the sum is over all $S$ which are $n$-part partitions of a subset of enough primes) as $$\sum_S \prod_i q_m(R_i).$$ Note that multiple choices of $r_i$ can result in the same product, so it is not enough to consider smooth numbers less than $m^n$.
While the above may help derive a lower bound, it may be more fruitful to consider for each integer $p\lt m^n$ the number of $n$- part coprime factorizations of $p$, then sum that number from $p=1$ to $m^n$. If I get a good idea for estimation with either scheme, I will add it below.
