Comment:

 Hello,

 I took a stab at this ticket.  I believe this covers the case stated in
 the ticket for allowing `"orderby" => "rand"`  to be  added to a new
 term_query.

 I went one step further and now allow `rand`, `random`, or `rand()` to be
 passed into the `orderby` property.  If any of these are passed, the query
 will change the `ORDER BY` from `name` to `rand()`

 Tests have been written as well to test for each of these properties.

 Please let me know if this is correct.

 -Brian
