If it's >0.9 is you can almost guarantee it's an alt but I've seen certain matches at 0.6. The problem is writing styles change over time. Another idea I had was converting the scores which are just cosine similarity scores into percentiles (so 0.99 would be 99th percentile of certainty) to make them more human interpretable.
I make new accounts every so often and the accounts of mine that it found have a score of around 0.3. I'm not actively trying to defeat stylometry but it's possible I just have a particularly unremarkable writing style.
Well I must be stereotypical myself because it found me at 0.8 !
The people at 0.4-0.6 with me do share some interests. That's cool on its own.

Will be interesting if we could plot the writing style divergence over time.
I got matched with my old account with a score of only 0.45
