How often am I supposed to water my cactus at this time of the year?

I like fall. It's my favorite season. @ Vomps, probably no more than twice a week

I'd go for once every two weeks.
Or once a week and forget it now and then.
It's up to you.

Or you could buy multiple cacti and test which method works best

Then you'll just have to live out your life not knowing the optimal cactus-watering interval.
What about the volume of water? Have you taken that into consideration?

I water it until the soil is thoroughly wet and let the excess water drip out from the hole in the bottom.

With that additional information I'd say 2.26 times/3 months.

But the amount of water left in the soil is limited by the size of the pot, which is very small.

...and you have to factor in the cactus size/soil amount/soil-capability-of-holding-water ratios as well.

I think I'm supposed to water it again when the soil is almost dry, but I would need some kind of a device to measure the humidity
