Do something like this...
The function Rnd will return a number between 0 and 1. To increase this to
a range of integers, multiply by the upper bound (for example,
Int(10 * Rnd) would create a number between 0 and 10). If you're going to
be generating random numbers in a loop then you'll need to reseed on every
iteration. To do this, use the Randomize key word, otherwise
you'll "generate" the same number over and over.

I found this in help. I haven't tried it myself
Set Tools = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.Tools")
<% = Tools.Random %> will display a random integer between -32768 to
32767. For example, -13067.
<% = ( Abs( Tools.Random ) ) %> will display a positive random integer.
For example, 23054.
<% = ( Abs( Tools.Random ) ) Mod 100 %> will display a random integer
between 0 and 99. For example, 63.
Good luck!
