Is there any way to randomise a query result set?  I was thinking of
adding...

SELECT rand() AS RandomColumn, OtherQueryFields, .......
FROM .......
WHERE .......
ORDER BY RandomColumn

to the query but am not sure if this will produce a good randomisation, it
doesn't need to be perfect, just good.

I am selecting about 800-900 records of which 400-800 will be used (don't
ask!) and I need to make sure that (on average) they are all used.
