From what I can see they were trying to generate 16bit integers, so the probability is 1 in 65536 and they were running the test for 11 hours.

You definitely would expect a roughly equal number of 0s as any other of those numbers since it's uniformly distributed. And definitely not 0

How would random numbers be uniformly distributed?

		So you think a weighted die is more random than a fair die? A uniform distribution means each outcome has equal probability; it doesn’t mean the outcome is predictable.

		Because each number is equally as likely as every other number. If you know you're more likely to get certain numbers, or in this case have no chance of getting certain other numbers, it is by definition _less random_.
