Would you share with us what you're trying to measure? (just curious) --
Infer the algorithm used for selecting Flow-IDs (whether random,
incremental, etc.), or something else?

David Malone has been performing measurements of this sort. -- You
should drop him an e-mail.. he might be willing to help.

P.S.: He published a paper with the data I think you're looking for --
although his apper is a bit dated.
