Title: Deprecate Bio/HotRand.py

With improvements in PRNGs & CSPRNGs (e.g. random.SystemRandom, RdRand, etc.),
I doubt this code is very useful anymore.

There are also alternative RANDOM.org modules, e.g.
http://www.random.org/clients/http/archive/
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/randomdotorg/

I can't find /any/ references to this code elsewhere (Google, GitHub), and some
parts seem to be broken (e.g. main's undefined hex_convert() ).
