You would need to have anchors to each "random" place and do a 301 redirect, which engines can do, but isn't really re-writing.

A better solution would be to use JavaScript. A quick jquery function could achieve this, assuming the browser has JavaScript enabled.

When you say anchors, what do you mean exactly by them? – PeanutsMonkey Oct 19 '11 at 1:38
Anchors are points in a webpage that the browser can automatically locate (scroll to), and they're indicated by having a # at the end of the url. For example - serverfault.com/questions/322751/… - that jumps you directly to this answer, because the question has an anchor on it with the ID of 322762, and it appears after the # in the URL – Mark Henderson♦ Oct 19 '11 at 2:09
