Why do we need the Quantum Random Number Generator?

This QRNG API gives a JSON file with truly random numbers.

Admittedly, even the research papers behind the experiment admits this would only be useful for encryption, as a regular random number generator such as the one I am using now based on time would be more cost effective than the overkill of paying for a quantum random number generator with perfect 50/50 odds of getting a 1 or a 0.

To access these numbers, you need an access key from the Australian National University.

The first 100 numbers a month are free. After that it will cost US $0.005/request, or our company can contact the ANU to get a custom quote. Pricing

The documentation for our software engineers is here: API Documentation

Admittedly our software engineers would also have to learn jQuery to use this particular API, not insurmountable but definitely a time commitment.
