Not sure if I understand your question, but I am guessing you basically
want to ask NSS for random data to either seed some PRNG or to create a
GUID.

To ask for random data from NSS call:

PK11_GenerateRandom(unsigned char *data,int len);

This presupposes you are using Gecko in your application and are using
the build configuration option of --enable-crypto.
