I have a SQL dump that I load in for testing with lots of "interesting"

I want to now pair that down to a smaller subset, however I can't just
delete from a range of ID's, as the data is sequential.
I want to delete say 1000 random rows from the table.
What fraction of the rows do you want to delete? 1%?
DELETE FROM TABLE WHERE RAND() < .01;
