One possibility could be:

*------------------------------
mat swr = J(100,2,.)
mat colnames swr = ndraw draw

clear
set obs 4
gen x4 = _n*10+1

forval i = 1/100 {
        cap drop u
        gen u = runiform()
        sort u
        loc d = x4[1]
        mat swr[`i',1] = `i'
        mat swr[`i',2] = `d'
}

mat li swr
*------------------------------

But have a look at Bill Gould's nice blog postings on random number
generation in Stata, especially part 3:
