Answer 1

If you need a single value without having to implement something like Guid.NewGuid(), perhaps the HttpContext timestamp will work for you.

int requestId = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Timestamp.Ticks;

A single tick represents one hundred nanoseconds or one ten-millionth of a second. There are 10,000 ticks in a millisecond, or 10 million ticks in a second.

Then this solution should be evaluated according to their circumstances because there is the possibility that two requests fall on the same tick of time.
