      is there any way to retrieve a random item in list of items?  I often run into scenarios where i want to test a random series of (valid) us addresses against my business rules.  it would be great if i could so something like this:

       {

        "query" : [
          {
            "citytown" : null,
            "limit" : 10,
            "sort" : random,
            "state_province_region" : null,
            "street_address" : null,
            "type" : "/location/mailing_address"
          }
        ]

        Currently there is no way to have MQL return a random set of items.  You might want to post this as an enhancement request here.

        Good morning all.

        Has a random feature become manifest in the meantime or is is on the agenda?

        Cheers
