Hey, Use the gaussian random timer, its the best.
It has the advantage of giving random timeouts with a higher probability for a value in the middle of the range (at the end if you plot all numbers returned on the rate of occurrence by it you'll have a gaussian distribution). so if you know that a user spends an average of x seconds on a single page and sessions usually last 9-15 page imprints and a total of y minutes, its pretty easy to estimate a realistic deviation from the average on that single page. Read more about the offset and deviation so you'll understand how to configure them.
