Thanks for the response!

I am only using this to generate some test data, so I don't need
anything near a completely uniform distribution.  Multiplying two 32
bit random numbers together will suit my purposes quite well, I was
just curious about why that sort of uneven distribution would happen. 
Again, thanks for your very informative answer.
