Unexpected circumstances gave me 5 dancers a couple years ago, and I wrote Tighten Your Lugnuts on the fly: https://contradb.com/dances/2387
It's nice enough that I wrote it down and call it at cider presses or other "places I'm randomly at and someone requests a dance".
If I remember correctly, Levi Jackson's Rag is for 7 dancers? I haven't called that myself.
