contents We explore the distribution of class numbers $h(d)$ of indefinite binary quadratic forms, for discriminants $d$ such that the corresponding fundamental unit $\varepsilon_d$ is lower than $d^{1/2+α}$, where $0<α<1/2$. To do so we find an asymptotic formula for $z^{th}$-moments of such $h(d)$'s, over $d\leq x$, uniformly for a complex number $z$ in a range of the form $|z|\leq(\log x)^{1+o(1)}$, $\Re(z)\geq -1$. This is achieved by constructing a probabilistic random model for these values, which we will use to obtain estimates for the distribution function of $h(d)$ over our family. As another application, we give an asymptotic formula for the number of $d$'s such that $h(d)\leq H$ and $\varepsilon_d\leq d^{1/2+α}$ where $H$ is a large real number.
