Vivienne,

This sounds great.  I think it is important to figure out what kinds of sites this works on (e.g. I'm guessing only those sites where the full set of possible URLs is known).

I also wonder if the tool can do any pattern recognition on "classes" of pages: think about the site of an on-line merchant with ~10 different types of products (and pages for them), user reviews (where users can enter HTML), etc.  You might want the sample to include at least once of each "type" or "design" of page...

Hi Eric & TF members

Following on one of our previous discussions, we are going to get some students doing a project this semester and they will build a prototype of a random sampling tool that will first do a count of the pages and then generate the requested random sample of URLs.  I've asked that it be larger than the sample required to allow the evaluator to cross off pages that are already in the targeted sample.

If anyone has any enhancements they think should be included, please let me know and I'll pass that along.
