RANDOM.ORG generates true randomness via atmospheric noise. This page shows the statistics for the Monobit variety of the Frequency Test.
(Each graph is from a different radio. Click on the graphs to enlarge them.)
This test measures whether the number of 0s and 1s produced by the generator are approximately the same as would be expected for a truly random sequence. Each graph shows how the numbers produced by a given radio performed on a particular day. New graphs are generated automatically shortly after midnight (UTC) every day. Each radio has its own name (e.g., copenhagen-hw0), and each graph is labelled with the name of the radio to which it belongs. Not all radios are active on all days.
The test works by examining the stream of numbers as a series of blocks. For each block, we compute a P-value, which indicates whether the ratio of 0s to 1s is as close to 0.5 as we would expect for a truly random sequence. A block fails the test if its P-value is too small, meaning that the ratio of 0s to 1s is further from 0.5 than we would expect. The frequency (monobit) test is a pretty basic test, and if a given block of numbers fails it, we can expect that block also to fail many of the other tests.
The graphs show the distribution of P-values across the range. In the configuration used here, blocks with P-values less than 0.01 failed the test. For a truly random sequence, we expect a relatively even distribution of P-values across the range. Remember that a good random number generator will also produce blocks that don't look random, so we expect some of the blocks to fail the test. (In fact, we should be suspicious if all blocks passed the test.) You will find more details about this on the Statistical Analysis page.
