Cool. I don't think the newly created node ID will work for the use
case, but the external URL call is excellent (and part of a trend,
ain't it). Of course, the URL will have to return a number random

I think Abel was implying that you would need to append a timestamp to
the query string to make it a unique url per request, ensuring a new
number would be returned each time (avoiding the rules of the doc()
function and perhaps caching along the way)
