A set of 250 throws with average of 9.56 in a fair d20 has a probability of about 0.5% to occur, so in 17 sets there is about a 8% chance to happen if you dice were fair according to binomial distribution. This means there is a 92% chance that your die is unfair. usually a confidence of >95% is needed for science but for home i think is enough to declare a dice unfair.
This calculation only says if the die is unfair, not how much unfair.
