Just pick a random number at the beginning, and start incrementing IDs from there. Like personal checks starting at 1000 so they're always(ish) 4 digit. Of course, maybe pick another starting number that's less obvious.

That's not effective at all.

Still leaks count -- you do similar stuff to estimate the minimum and the maximum.
