bad idea, why not use sensible and useful filenames?

However, here's some pseudocode
1) generate random number rand()
2) check if that number is used ( store a list of used numbers in an array, database, file, glob through a dir etc)
3) if it isn't used, use it
4) if it is used, get another random number
