I think we should check not N last runs, but all runs in last N days.

A simple rule to detect flaky fails by hands - get test history ordered
by TEST_STATUS_DESC and check its date. As I see, we can get list of
failures from TC. We don't need to check successfull runs, because they are
uninformative for our needs.
