Is it getting random() in here?

Gotta plug an interesting site. Basically, I needed 256 random bytes for an encryption routine I'm writing. I figured it'd only take a couple of minutes to write a piece of code to generate 'em, but I decided to do a search first, just in case.

Lo and behold, I find www.random.org, which'll generate a pile of random numbers in whatever range you need. A cut-n-paste and a search-n-replace later, and I had a 256-byte encryption key.
