This seems like a really insecure method of doing anything, as there's no way for the raid leader to verify that the sender's number is actually random. Someone could easily modify the addon, or just write their own addon, to always send a high number.

If you want to use rolling as a method of choosing a winner, you should just use the real /roll command, no addon communication, and have the raid leader run an addon that watches all the /rolls and announces the winner.
