I could think of implementing some mechanics in the NTP

Problem with that simple algorithm is that many perfectly
valid configurations of standard ntpd (like iburst) or ntpdate will launch 4
queries over a very short period of time (like a second).

Ok, I guess it would be no problem to make an exception for iburst, which should be the only one we would have to take care of AFAIK.

Kind regards,
