DNS Resolver(s) Tested:

  1. 38.107.191.80 appears to have GREAT source port randomness and GREAT transaction ID randomness.

Test time: 2009-11-12 11:56:01 UTC

Note that standard deviation is usually, but not always, a good indicator of randomness. Your brain is a better detector of randomness, so be sure to take a look at the scatter plots below. If you see patterns (such as straight lines), the values are probably less random than reported.
