A vague recollection but at one time I thought the N1MMLogger had the
random offset. Maybe it was an option. I didn't pursue it personally.

During some of my modest runs in the CW ARRL DX contest last weekend,
it seemed many of the callers were on exactly the same frequency,
making it really hard to pick out a call. This phenomenon seems to be
getting worse. I wonder if this is because many of them are just
clicking on a spot, and modern radios have such great frequency
accuracy. It would help if operators using this technique would use
the XIT to offset 50-100 Hz. (No more, or you'll end up too close to
the neighbors.) If it doesn't already, perhaps someday software could
introduce a random offset.
There were also, of course, some callers way off frequency. It's best
to know just where your transmit frequency is, and to place it
strategically.
