For a few years, I've considered the hot hand experiment[1] somewhat of a free will test in the sense that if our choices are not a function of the past then we should have the ability to fake coin flips. It supports idea of free will being a continuum because the answer to the runs test is the probability that the data was faked - never a definite yes or no.

I don't follow your logic. The question of whether or not we have free will is independent of the question of whether or not events from the past influence our decision-making process, which seems to be unquestionably true.
