Aren't you all missing a major point?
I thought GUIDs were generated using two things which make the chances of them being Globally unique quite high. One is they are seeded with the MAC address of the machine that you are on and two they use the time that they were generated plus a random number.
So unless you run it on the actual machine and run all you guesses within the smallest amount of time that the machine uses to represent a time in the GUID you will never generate the same number no matter how many guesses you take using the system call.
I guess if you know the actual way a GUID is made would actually shorten the time to guess quite substantially.
