I haven't seen a generic user creation utility, however in similar situations I prefer to have a bit more control than that and would instead create a list of user names that I can easily glance at and know the originating directory.
If you truly want random names to work with, you may want to consider building such a dictionary and building that directory based on that. Something that uses maybe census or population data would be useful I'm sure.
I'd likely build the template directory with script and then use ldif to export it for future use.
Does that help or is that not what you can use?

I utilise _vbscript_ too, but I wanted user data with a little more substance.
500 names in an ldf file is a lot more use to me than a vbs file which creates user 1, 2, 3 etc etc

So stuill I don't think he will find such .. I use _vbscript_ to populate
my AD with test data.
