I wrote the program, and the winner is:

*ears, with 11 possibilities, followed by 

*ails, with 10

 

Only the first and middle letter variant had instances with more than 6 possibilities, > ~20 for the first and 5 for the middle.

The answer is never a plural, though, is it? At least not a standard 'ending in s' one.

LOL, yes, I realised that, in the middle of the night!

Also, I don't recollect them using the third person singular of verbs, which gets rid of quite a few more.

The following have seven alternatives and don't end in the letter 's':

*ated

*ound

*owed

*ower

*ater

*ight

 

For the middle letter variant we only have:

ra*ed with 8 (although 'rased' is pretty obsolete) and

pa*ed with 7.

There are some rather obsolete words in there. A workmate of mine does the wordle too and we share our guesses. IIRC he misspelt raised once and it accepted rased.
