Temperature Weighted Random
The Temperature Weighted Random API fetches the current temperature from 10 cities across 7 continents, sums them, and returns the last two digits as your random number. It is meteorologically defensible and statistically meaningless. The methodology has not been peer reviewed because no one would agree to review it.
