What is the distribution of /dev/urandom? Code to verify?

Everywhere I look it says /dev/urandom on linux is "random", but no source I can find cites what kind of random "random" is. My hope is that it is close to uniform on 0x01 to 0xff bytewise. If I wanted to test this, what would be the best way to get an estimate of the distribution? Solution in bash preferred.
