Distribute quantities into buckets - Not evenly

I've been searching around for a solution to this, but I think because of how I'm thinking about it, my search phrases might be a bit loaded in favor of topics that aren't completely relevant.

I have a number, say 950,000. This represents an inventory of [widgets] within an entire system. I have about 200 "buckets" that should each receive a portion of this inventory such that there are no widgets left over.

What I would like to happen is for each bucket to receive different amounts. I don't have any solid code to show right now, but here's some pesudo code to illustrate what I've been thinking:

//List<BucketObject> _buckets is a collection of "buckets", each of which has a "quantity" property for holding these numbers.

int _widgetCnt = 950000;
int _bucketCnt = _buckets.Count;     //LINQ
//To start, each bucket receives (_widgetCnt / _bucketCnt) or 4750.

for (int _b = 0; b< _bucketCnt - 1; i++)
{
     int _rndAmt = _rnd.Next(1, _buckets[i].Quantity/2); //Take SOME from this bucket...
     int _rndBucket = _rnd.Next(0,_bucketCnt - 1);    //Get a random bucket index from the List<BucketObject> collection.

     _buckets.ElementAt(_rndBucket).Quantity += _rndAmt;
     _buckets.ElementAt(i).Quantity -= _rndAmt;
}

Is this a statistically/mathematically proper way to handle this, or is there a distribution formula out there that handles this? The kicker is that while this pseudo code would run 200 times (so each bucket has a chance to alter its quantities) it would have to run X number of times depending on the TYPE of widget (which currently stands at just 11 flavors, but is expected to expand significantly in the future).

{EDIT} This system is for a commodity trading game. Quantities at the 200 shops must differ because the inventory will determine the price at that station. The distro can't be even because that would make all prices the same. Over time, prices will naturally get out of balance, but the inventory must start out off-balance. And all inventories have to be at least similar in scope (ie, no one shop can have 1 item, and another have 900,000)
