Much more than moderately (5)

I believe the answer is:

ultra

(Other definitions for ultra that I've seen before include "Saharan dweller" , "Secret intelligence" , "Fanatic" , "Prefix meaning extreme or excessive" , "Project started at Bletchley Park in 1939 to break the Enigma code" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
