Recall that Ueli's Universal Statistical Test is valid only for real sources of entropy. PRNGs have zero entropy asymptotically ;-)

Sorry that I haven't yet understood. Could you explain a bit more from the entropy point of view? In my opinion, a statistical test does not and should not take into account how a sequence being tested is obtained. Given is simply a sequence and no other information and the test should give an answer. M. K. Shen
