   You are using approximate algorithms, so the results can be different every time. The question is how different are they? What accuracy do you expect? To answer this question you need to be more specific. What do you mean by "oscillating between 2-3 values"? What is the true distribution of your input data? What approximation are you getting? Why do you think it is too far off?
