One non-obvious addition. Don't use /usr/dict/words verbatim. Apache and most other web servers will announce what they are and what os they're on. With that piece of info, someone could find the same version of /usr/dict/words that you have and only have to guess your initial random number and hash function (because you'd probably be using one of the standard ones) to replicate your hash. Use a randomized version of /usr/dict/words. That way you have two random elements in play.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
