It would produce something completely different every time.

You either need to be indistinguishable from everyone else, or indistinguishable from your last page load.

Just randomly inserting fake fonts, changing your screen resolution by a few pixels, changing the variant of English between US, Canada, UK and Australia. Rendering text and images with unnoticeable random dither in the subpixel hinting. That sort of stuff.
