Hi Adrian,
Take a handful of black and white stones, throw them on a 9x9 board and check how many times you need to repeat this before you have a legal position :) Please report your results in case you actually proceed with this experiment.

Very cool! I find it interesting that the number is only about 1.2% of 3^361 (though I realize 3^361 doesn't take symmetries into account). On the surface it's counterintuitive to me that nearly 99% of random stone configurations are not legal Go positions!
