I once wrote a chess engine that played completely random moves and let it play on the Internet Chess Club against humans for a day. It played 1/0 games (1 minute for all moves). The final result was 46 wins, 22 draws, and 446 losses.
Here's a breakdown.
* 446 losses by checkmate
* 23 wins by time forfeit
* 18 wins by resignation
* 5 wins by disconnection forfeit
* 15 stalemates
* 5 draws by insufficient material
* 2 draws by repetition
Obviously it never won by checkmate. The rest basically came down to whether the human opponent figured out that it was playing against a bot.
