   Hi,

   I'm looking for a way in a custom query to fetch 5 random posts among the last 15 posts in one given category. Is there a way to do this?

   Right now this is what I've got:
   

   <?php global $post;
   	$args = array(
           'orderby' => 'rand',
   	'numberposts' => 5,
   	'category' => 5
   	);
   	$myposts = get_posts( $args );
   	foreach( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata($post); ?>

   Which gives me 5 random posts that are in category 5, but with no limit back in time/posts numbers.

   Thanks!
