…uld like to answer it. There is an authoritative source of random numbers. In 1955, The RAND Corporation (a Cold War-era think tank) published a wonderful book entitled "A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates". Amazon.com has a copy of it, including some amusing reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Million-Random-Digits-Normal-Deviates/... . For a good source of truly random numbers accessible from an API, I personally use http://random.org . They use atmospheric noise to create random numbers, which ultimately boils down to the true randomness that is Quantum Mechanics. It's not suitable for high-security applications -- I could do some network trickery and redirect your API request to my server that always returns 1.0 -- but it's better than the PRNGs on modern computers.
