Hell that'd have to one seriously busy website!  That's like 99999999
hits per second (or millisecond if you don't seed Randomize()) website!

Well no thats not strictly true. It is an exaggeration.

It should be noted that no matter how good the seed a computer generated
random number is not random and should not be trusted at any time to
give a truly random number or for the "random" number not to be a repeat!

It sounds like you are wanting to get a unique number out of a random
number generator, which you are never going to manage.
