Chris, It depends on where you're calling random.random(). If you're trying to do it in a model definition, then you're always going to have the value it chose when it first executed the model's class definition-- when the server starts up. In that case, you should be able to pass an argument of default=random.random in the definition. If it's somewhere else you're trying to call it, let us know.
