in reply to Get random unique lines from file
Look at the BioPerl package, (in particular Bio::SeqIO and Bio::Seq).
Bio::SeqIO provides a method for opening a FASTA file and Bio::Seq provides methods to access the particular info you're after.

Update: I just now realized that doesn't solve the problem of getting the random lines you want. :-(
