This works for me.
My model:
class BannerPosition(models.Model):
        position = models.SmallIntegerField()
        banner = models.ForeignKey(BannerItem)
        class Meta:
                ordering = ('position', 'banner')
        def __str__(self):
                return '%s - %s' % (self.banner.name, self.position)
        class Admin:
                pass

which is sorted via Class Meta.
than my view:

import random

def banner(request, object_id):
        """
        get the banners check if random or sorted.
        """
        object = Banner.objects.select_related().get(id=object_id)
        objectMain = object
        object = object.banners.all()
        object = list(object)
        if objectMain.randomize:
                random.shuffle(object)
        return render_to_response('playlist.xml', {'object': object})

it checks if the "randomize" field is set in the banner object., if so
it takes the list (you need to convert it to a list for shuffle to
work) and shuffles it. than passes it on. works fine for me.
